Shortly after I wrote, I found that "startup applications" in
System/Preferences took care of what I wanted to do in practice. But I
imagine that it might be necessary, or at least cleaner or more
desirable, to have a shell script do this sort of task instead. It
looks like what I interactively entered into Startup Applications gets
stored in a scattering of xml files down in one of Gnome's directories
somewhere, rather than in a bash script or in one single easily edited
file.

That is correct, most gnome settings are stored in "GConf", which is an
xml backed system. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GConf GConf is
certainly in use in the gnome version in RHEL6, however the future is
GSettings ( http://developer.gnome.org/gio/unstable/GSettings.html )
which is backed by dconf (
