I've been trying to find out the meaning of LimitLoadToSessionType in launchctl on OS X (Lion).
After scouring the internet, it seems the value can be one of: Aqua, LoginWindow, Background, StandardIO and System.
Are there any missing, and more importantly, does anyone know what effect they have?

OS X is version 10 of the Apple MacIntosh operating system . OS X was described by Apple as its first "complete revision" of the OS since the previous version is OS 9, with a focus on modularity so that future changes would be easier to incorporate.
macOS (/ˌmækoʊˈɛs/; previously Mac OS X and later OS X) is a Unix operating system developed and marketed by Apple Inc. since 2001. It is the primary operating system for Apple's Mac computers.
Mac computers and MacOS are for users who want a premium, fine-tuned, maintenance-free desktop experience. Apple's top-to-bottom philosophy makes its software relatively accessible to newcomers. It's also a great pick for people who are dedicated to Apple's mobile products.
Hold the Ctrl key, click your user account's name in the left pane, and select “Advanced Options.” Click the “Login Shell” dropdown box and select “/bin/bash” to use Bash as your default shell or “/bin/zsh” to use Zsh as your default shell.
This Apple Technical Note explains most of the session types (it doesn't cover System; I think Tech Note was last updated for Snow Leopard and System was probably added for Lion):
Briefly:
I could guess about System, but then so could you. I wish Apple would update the TN2083 for OS X 10.7.
