If I do one by one this way I'll create a bunch of settings files in
home/config just for storing window positions... this seems less than
elegant to me. I'm hoping for a more thoughtful solution to this
problem.

Most applications already have a settings file, and it's usually not a problem to add to that. Another issue is that it doesn't make sense for many windows to store their position in the first place. If you're not a developer that works on it, you open settings windows maybe every few months -- why on earth should it remember the position beyond the runtime of the application?
