Public bug reported:

I want to set a number of environment variables on login (LC_* and PATH,
for example). I want these settings to take effect regardless of whether
I log in through gdm or the virtual console.

I do not think that there is a single configuration file in my home directory 
that gets sourced on both types of login.
(I know that I could work around this by including something like "source 
my_configuration_file" in both .gnomerc and .bash_profile.) I would be nice to 
have a single file to store such settings. Ideally, it would be sourced 
irrespective of the shell I use.

Obviously, this is not an issue with ubuntu specifically--as far as I
know, all Linux distributions have this problem.
