Devil's Pie works with Mutter, but it doesn't have any way to save and restore sizes without specifying them directly. You could try Devil's Pie 2 which has a proper scripting engine at the core, so you could probably write a save/restore script that doesn't need explicit sizing. You'll then see how hard this is to do properly.
