(1) you can use the gnome-session-properties application to manage
startup programs
(1.1.) It really should be much easier to find this.  Much like the fact
that I have to search for and run "Printing" to set my session's default
printer.
(1.2.) Reading <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=747689>
might help you out too.

(2) your statement is bull,  Tracker is not "needlessly burning cycles".
Tracker is 104% awesome.  Install the extension found at
<https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/284/tracker-search/>.  Don't
bother replying if you disagree,  I'm not interesting in discussing
this: tracker is awesome, fact.

Because being started or not is managed via auto-start.
