Anybody know how to set default umask for gnome's session?
I used to be able to set "umask 077" in ~/.profile. This no longer works with latest gnome-session I'm using. That is, creating a document in gedit always uses a umask of 022.

Has anyone been able to set a umask that gets used in your gnome-session? How did you do it?

You'll probably have to go for pam_umask then but this smells like a bug in gnome.
