Thanks for your report.
I can't locate an upstream bug to verify this, but I think this is the
intended behaviour in gnome-terminal. You may want to have multiple
terminals open at the same time; when you relaunch gnome-terminal while
another instance is running, if there isn't enough screen space, the
subsequently opened windows will be cascaded, and if there is, they'll
be tiled. This is the default Metacity behaviour, which gnome-terminal
seemingly doesn't want to interfere with. If it were to remember the
exact location, the new windows would be placed on top of the existing
one, and obscure it.
Please file a bug in the upstream bug tracker if you think the behaviour
should change. I'm leaving status set to "Needs Info" until we get an
official (or at least better informed) word that confirms this is a
feature.
