Michael Jansen reports that autostart needs an exception too.  Instead of 
continuing to add exceptions I'm figuring that instead of checking for "apps", 
"services", "xdgdata-apps" and autostart, that we simply check for the case of 
that exception if the .desktop is under one of the prefixes in KDEDIRS (as 
returned by KStandardDirs::kfsstnd_prefixes()?  On that note it would be nice 
to have an official public API in KStandardDirs for figuring out where KDE was 
installed to.
