For the time being, that's the best way.

During the testing phase, it was enabled by default by putting a 
.desktop file in /etc/xdg/autostart.  That was disabled due to bug 
183898.  I believe that bug's been fixed in today's update.  Autostart 
is still disabled, and I'm not sure where to find the .desktop file for 
reference.

Anyway, you can look here for more information:
