But it will only work for gnome-terminal. From 
/usr/share/doc/x11-common/NEWS.Debian.gz:

This release provides the ability to set session-wide environment
variables easily. If you have the file ".xsessionrc" in your home
directory it will be read (sourced) by the X session scripts during
login. This allows you to easily set environment variables in this file
that apply to all apps. This is most immediately useful for setting
locale information. Remember that for most shells you will have to
explicitly export the variable for it to take effect in your session.

Andrei
