There is an "STR " resource in Multifinder 6.1b9 with the contents
":Background Folder"; it seems that if you put applications in a folder of
this name in the system folder, Multifinder will automatically run them at
boot time, as if they were selected for "Set Startup".

Full credit for this astounding discovery goes to my housemate, who wishes
to remain anonymous. :)
