Bug#648372: gnome-core: provide tool to reset gnome session configuration

Package: gnome-core
Version: 1:3.0+3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,
each time when gnome is updated the old gnome session configurations
become unusable! So only the gnome failsafe session is usable.
But there is no way to replace the unusable old configuration settings
with the new defaults.
So please provide a tool to remove the configuration settings
or provide a better documentation were the configuration is hidden.


Greetings
	Juergen
