I've built a snapshot [1], which adds a heuristic which ignores a

you might like to try and see if that fixes your problem, but I'm not
sure if that is the correct solution.

I have just the issue that the exe does not seem to work for me. Is
there anything special I need to consider?

Sorry, my snapshot building script went wrong and the snapshot was
broken.  Try this one instead.

Can't believe it, great! Works exactly as it should (just with the
standard configuration, "X :0 -multiwindow")!!

Now I just hope that this 'patch' somehow finds its way into the trunk ;-)

This fix is included is 1.15.1-3.

On reflection, I think a better approach would be to look at _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE and if it's _NET_WM_TYPE_NORMAL or absent, ignore PPosition and place the window as we like, but that is not quite as straightforward to implement.
