If I may say, it shouldn't be a problem, I have ls overloaded with
aliases to about 3 or 4 levels. In other words bash has to expand more
than one alias every time I type ls, and it works just fine. I was going
to suggest "exec startx", because that way the startx process replaces
the login shell, and when it exits you're back to a normal login prompt.
