Hello Demaine,

I added two new configuration options in the window geometry settings.
See the commit it should explain it. But it's easy to understand from
the option text.

Please test if this solves all your use cases or if still a problem
exists.

The SVN commit number for this change is 50083.

regards
        Andreas
