Prompted by your post. Actually I had been looking for this exact
feature for ages and had not thought of cron'ing the session save. The
moment I read your post I checked my Gnome version and implemented it. I
don't think Gnome has any better native crash handler, and using CRON
seems to be a simple and easy answer. Not sure about the resource use
yet, time will tell, but seems fine for now until something better comer
along
