See, you "think", but you haven't verified it in comparison to a local
homedir.  As I said, I haven't either, but it was a hint from some of
the devs to look out for that.  So maybe we just have to live with a
slower session startup if networked homedirs are part of the equation;
testers to confirm or dismiss this theory are welcome. ;-)
