The bug is clearly stated, reproducible and confirmed by others as well.

Hence it can not be ONLY "invalid + opinion + opinion" at 3 packages,
and no package is mentioned with "new" or "confirmed".

It is acceptable, if someone's opinion is that "mutter is not new but
opinion only".

But it is not acceptable, if the same person does not mark any other
package or the Ubuntu as a whole as "new" or "confirmed", --- since if
all the packages mentioned already becomes either "invalid" or
"opinion", then the bug report is rejected in fact, what would be a
wrong decision since the bug is there confiredly.

In fact, if wayland protocol is not advanced enough to provide the
original standard facility to handle the positioning of windows, then
ALL the packages that wish to use this original standard instead of the
new facilities, all of them have the bug, because it is a buggy
behaviour to rely on something what is not offerd by the underlying
wayland.

Therefore the releases 21.04 as a whole has this bug:  makes something
defuault what brakes the all the packages which wish to position the
main window of it's own applications. A disturbing exampe:

$ wmctrl -d
Cannot get current desktop properties. (_NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP or _WIN_WORKSPACE 
property)
$ wmctrl -l
$

wmctrl -d does not "List  all  desktops  managed  by the window
manager."

wmctrl -l does not "List the windows being managed by the window
manager."

While the same "wmctrl" packages works fine with Xorg.

However the "wmctrl" can not be added to the affected packages, since
the bugs.launchpad does not accept "wmctrl" as an existing package!

Title:
  [wayland] gnome window manager ignores the --geometry location request
  of the gnome-terminal

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion
Status in gnome-terminal package in Fedora:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The example "gnome-terminal --geometry=80x24+200+200" from the man
  page of gnome-terminal, does not work: while the 80x24 part of the
  geometry request is executed, the location +200+200 is overridden by
  the automatic positioning of new windows by the "Gnome Shell".

  "--geometry=GEOMETRY Set the window size as COLSxROWS+X+Y. For
  example, 80x24 or 80x24+200+200."

  The "+X+Y" part is ignored since I upgraded from 20.10 to 21.04
  yesterday, just 4 hours after the official release.
