That's why most of us mortals just tell the window manager to ignore
PPosition hints. :)

Not easily, as such information is never present before the window is
made visible. Your best bet is to use your own geometry definitions

applications to do an "OK" job (for some value of "OK") at remembering
their position, anyway.
