Since I have a multihead setup at home I want to run 2 instances of
desklaunch, one for each display. Unfortunately the result is chaos:
both instances seem to be rewriting the .desklaunchrc file and since
for some reason and at each rewrite the order of the items is reversed
things get very confused and the icons will change plages and cover
each other.

I would suggest a few approaches:
* don't automatically rewrite the desklaunchrc file but only when a
  specific reconfigure commandline option is given (preferred approach)
* do an atomic replace on the file instead of rewriting it in place

Also, please don't reverse the options when rewriting, this can be a bit
confusing.

Wichert.
