Then the right thing to do is probably put code at the end of
/etc/environment (which is sourced by the Gnome session script, so it
can contain any Bourne-style shell code you want) like this:
if [ -f $HOME/.environment ]; then
. $HOME/.environment
fi
This way, any user who wants to customize his login environment can
simply create a file in his home directory called .environment, and put
any shell code that he wants (probably mostly environment variable
settings, hence the filename) in there. Users who don't care can simply
not have the file.
