/etc/xdg/autostart is used by all users of the system, whereas the
equivalent under home is only for the owner of that home directory.

I'm not familiar with KDE but imagine that the other location is KDE
specific. That is you've got one location for autostart programs for your
user that will be started by all DE's, one for all users started by all
DE's and one for your user started only by KDE. There's probably a 4th
system-wide location for all KDE users?
