Yeah, I think I agree.

The reason I noticed is this summary docs page:

https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/shell-overview.html

Under "Customize your desktop" there is a "Have applications start 
automatically on log in" link (the Tweaks page), and right below under 
"Applications and windows" there is a "Startup Applications" link (the 
old feature which is kept in Ubuntu).

Maybe, if we keep the patch, I should simply hide the upstream docs page 
which refers to Tweaks in order to avoid confusion.
