If there's one thing I really HATE about those modern desktop
applications, it's the lack of support for the good old -geometry
command line option.

So instead of fighting the desktop people with bugzilla's (which they
confirm, but seem not to do anytning about), I was wondering: is there
anything else that can be done?

Can ctwm play a role in this -- maybe ctwm can handle a geometry
request? Or a wrapper program that waits until the window is mapped,
and then places/resizes it. Just some thoughts.

But I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem. Maybe you know a
way to overcome, solve or work around this?
