Launching Apps automatically when the PA Menu starts

I've done some searching, and I haven't found a lot of info on this, other than references to the XRX mod.

I'd like to be able to specify applications that will auto-start when I first start up the PA menu. Specifically, I have a desktop replacement app which I'd like to use every time I start up the menu. Also, it would be nice to open Firefox automatically, too, since I usually go straight for it.

Ive been meaning to ask for this for a while to be added to the official menu. Since the new one has not yet been released in beta, could this be added? Or is there a trick that can be used, like something added into the portableappsmenu.ini file?

I know I could use the XRX mod, but I'd like to stick with the official version as long as possible.

Thanks, and I hope this has been answered somewhere else before... I did search for it, but any time you search on the words "autostart", "autolaunch", etc, it returns the posts on WINDOWS autoplay issues, of which there are a huge number.
