Title:
  Startup applications should hint about the possibility to drag
  applications from the dash

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  New
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  How to reproduce:
  1. Run gnome-session-properties (or alternatively via session indicator run "Startup applications..."
  2. Add Tomboy (via the add button)

  What happens: 
  Well, Tomboy is added and runs the next logon. But the icon is not visible nor is it possible to add it manually. 

  What should happen:
  Well, I would like to see an icon next to Tomboy, as I see for example for System load applet

  There are two solutions: one is to use gtk software selector: bug
  140918

  Other is to somehow hint the user that  she can drag and drop icons
  from unity

  See attached screenshot for how it looks like (applications with icons
  were added in 11.04 and earlier I think)
