No I don't.

Let me elaborate: I didn't set any of this stuff up myself. I never
intentionally installed something with the aim of getting a GPG entry
dialog to pop up when I started my system. It's being done for me by
some package or other, therefore it should be doing it correctly. It
shouldn't do it incorrectly and require me to manually hack a config
file to fix something I didn't introduce in the first place. :)

Yeah, it looks like GNOME actually has a mechanism that works to do it
just-in-time now, rather than universally at session start, so that's
better anyway.
