I think it's more of a security feature than a bug, so no I don't think
it's appropriate to open a bug against the protocol itself. And Ubuntu
was not involved in the design of Wayland, so complaining about it here
won't achieve much.
As a workaround you can:
* Use Xorg sessions instead; or
* Find a gnome-shell extension that will remember window positions for
you; or
* Just place windows manually.

Title:
new in 21.04: gnome window manager ignores the --geometry location
request of the gnome-terminal
Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
The example "gnome-terminal --geometry=80x24+200+200" from the man
page of gnome-terminal, does not work: while the 80x24 part of the
geometry request is executed, the location +200+200 is overridden by
the automatic positioning of new windows by the "Gnome Shell".
"--geometry=GEOMETRY Set the window size as COLSxROWS+X+Y. For
example, 80x24 or 80x24+200+200."
The "+X+Y" part is ignored since I upgraded from 20.10 to 21.04
yesterday, just 4 hours after the official release.
