Answer 1

OS X 10.8 stores login items in com.apple.loginwindow.plist

Answer 2

OS X 10.8 is under NDA, we are not at liberty of giving details about it but i can tell you that there is no /Library/Preferences/loginwindow under 10.7 or any other recent OSX version, you should be doing :

defaults write \
    ~/Library/Preferences/loginwindow \
    AutoLaunchedApplicationDictionary \
    -array-add '{ "Path" = "/path/to/script"; "Hide" = "0"; }'

Notice the "~" tilde was missing
