I've been doing some testing of this on hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290) on a very recent QA-test install (20.04) fully upgraded.
To reset 'vlc' (to get PrivNetAccPolicy to show) I'm using `rm ~/.config/vl* -rf` I was unable to re-create it (and this box shares the screens of hp 8200 so I'd expect to set it up pretty much same orientation (maybe opposite of top/bottom but I've been trying variations of screen positions too). Scanning http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/reports/bugs/1804341 it looks like I've only reported this issue as occurring on hp 8200 & d960 (my primary box that I key results into & thus rarely use for testing http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/398/builds/189072/testcases/1303/results) Thus reported boxes (unless I missed one) are :- dell [optiplex] 960 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350) hp 8200 elite sff (i5-2400, 8gb, nvidia quadro 600) When the PrivNetAccPolicy window appears, the panel TaskManager button only moves the "VLC media player" window and doesn't touch the errant PrivNetAccPolicy dialog (ie. it doesn't move when you right-click & select move), but that dialog only occurs once, so any users who just close it won't notice it again anyway. Users can click into "Simple Preferences" and on the "Interface Settings" the "Allow metadata network access" checkbox can be changed (what the dialog box asks). If they did SKIP or CLOSE the PriNetAccPolicy window because it was hard to read, or ignored it seems to default to "Allow metadata access network access" is DISABLED which is I suspect what most users would want. If they want it enabled, they can go into Interface Settings and change it. Unless another user does confirm this (ie. they see it as a bug worth fixing), I'm happy (& suggesting) ignore it. It's not worth the effort in my opinion.
