I think I have to agree. I wasn't expecting it to be enabled for all
users, and it took me a while to discover that it was getting launched
twice and why (because I had already added it to my startup manually
with the options I wanted).

I can appreciate trying to make it easy for the average user to figure
out how to use it given that it lacks a GUI, but auto-launching it
globally forces it on users who might not want it and also gets in the
way of users launching it with their own command-line options.

Title:
  unclutter shouldn't be enabled by default

Status in unclutter package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: unclutter

  When you install unclutter it starts automatically every time you boot
  your computer. This is set in '/etc/default/unclutter'.

  It can be confusing for many users (it was for me). I believe the
  default should be changed so that the user has to enable it.

  Thanks.
