Gnome-session listens on port

[Jason Stokes <jstok bluedog apana org au>]

What's the purpose of the open port that gnome-session listens on upon
startup, and how do I stop it listening on that port?  I don't think
it's appropriate for gnome-session to open a port without the user's
knowledge that he's exporting some kind of service to the world.
