One of my companies’ apps has a “Launch at login” pref, which no longer works 
in OS X 10.11. I’m not surprised, since the existing code implements this by 
writing into loginwindow’s user defaults :-p

I’m trying to find the currently supported API for this. The “Adding Login 
Items” page says:
> There are two ways to add a login item: using the Service Management 
> framework, and using a shared file list.
> Login items installed using the Service Management framework are not visible

> Login items installed using a shared file list are visible in System 
> Preferences; users have direct control over them. 

I’d definitely prefer the latter, since it seems like a bad idea to have the 
app not show up in the user’s login-item list in the Accounts system pref.

I found LSSharedFileList.h, but everything in there is marked deprecated. :(

What are my options?
