Is there any harm in still supporting it as a drop down placement mode or
similar for the window position behaviour? 

It would be more intuitive and discoverable to the user I assume if it was
available as an option there with the other related window position settings
than having the user know/discover that they can use a kwin rule for it?
Although rather than ignoring the apps position it'd be more of a remember
position.

I think I could see that being useful for most apps as an available option and
selectively adding a kwin window rule to apps where it's not as
desirable(multiple instances like terminal or web browser, unless the
rule/placement mode can be smart enough to only apply the remembered position
to the first window instance and use a fallback placement mode for additional
instances??)
