Comment (by pulkomandy):
I don't see how saving the size and position can be annoying ? The
alternative is always opening at the same size and position, without any
way for the user to change that default.
Of course, making it resolution-safe (or even better, resolution
independant) is a good thing.
As far as I know, there is no perfect way to solve this problem. The
closest match for Haiku is to save the window size&position as attribute
in a document, so that it can be restored for that particular document
(matching Tracker's spatial mode for folders). Pe does this, for example.
But for apps that have no notion of a document, like terminal, I see no
solution that matches ?
If you're single-window-mode people, then, I have no idea how it should
work.
