[Usability] gnome-terminal and more updates.

1.  Any suggestions on where and how to save sessions in gnome-terminal?   The lack of that function is making reboots a nightmare - I have to go through every single one of
possibly tens of terminals, recording where they are and what they are doing, and then stepwise restore them on a reboot.   I do about 50% of my work in a terminal - and 40% in
emacs or a custom install of eclipse.   The last 10% is either www on any one of several browsers or pidgin.   I've got the code (thanks for making it be able to build outside of
a huge tree) but I'm still not entirely sure what happened with session saving.  My browsers (for the most part) still have it but it seems to be gone from any other app I use.

2. How can I make desktop search not be present?   It saps CPU power, drive space and productivity.    I used to just be able to uninstall it, but y'all seem to have taken that
option away.

3. Any suggestions on how I can make a menu system to access the already-existing database I have?   I've finally made that bloody panel go away but I'm still not sure how to
access my less-frequently-used context-organized apps.

4. Any way to make notifications only appear on a small block on the status bar, just so I can ignore them when I'm busy doing something time-critical?

Really, I'll figure out 2 and 3 eventually.   I don't know why everyone is so set on notifications - I'd prefer them logged so I can look at them later, and only a non-intrusive
signal that there are any to pay attention to.    But #1 is critical.

Thanks!
