Yeah the splash screen thing, I don't care so much about, though I guess
it's a symptom of the same issue. My main concern is this app I'm using (
it's a commerical data transformation app ... *really* old-school ... buggy
... grrr ) has a LOT of new windows open, and they *all* go to my laptop
screen, which is really annoying. Shouldn't the placement of windows be the
task of the window manager, and not the application? The app can *request*
things I guess. But a policy of "ignore app requests" in this respect would
be a good feature to have.
