I really would like my $HOME/.login to be executed when I log in to Aqua instead of only when executing Terminal or logging in remotely. Environment settings made that way can apply to applications. That is apparently not going to happen in Panther or anything else shy of Linux.

Perhaps I'm not understanding you -- but couldn't you create a one-line AppleScript

do shell script "source /Users/<yourname>/.login"

save it as an application, and put an alias of it into the Login Items?
