position. Probably because libtracker has been doing that on a per app
bases for a long time.
Where? I don't see it.
> Also, the idea with app_server preventing off-screen locations for
creating windows at, it's not possible nor wanted to do this, because some
apps actually create a window outside the screen on purpose, then move it
to the visible portion. Fixing this in libtracker is the way to go.
I didn't mean in general, I meant specifically the case where a window is
visible/accessible, but then a resolution switch results in it being
outside of the new visible bounds, ergo the user no longer has a way to
manipulate it / move it back. I didn't mean preventing them from ever
being moved outside of the desktop bounds, just in that one case, which
imho is a valid one and covers more than just file panels.
