Not unless you know something I don't know...  I gave up on Sawfish
because, though it would save my "session" (all the windows I had open) it
would pile them up all over the first desktop when I logged back
in.  

I tried using the configuration tool to change the behavior, but had no
luck.  There is also I think a menu option on the window decorations that
supposedly lets you remember window locations and such, but that didn't
seem to work either.

There were a few other small annoyances too, though I don't remember
what they were off the top of my head. 

Enlightenment does a much better job at remembering my session, but
unfortunately sometimes when I log out, it gets all messed up and I have
to manually edit my session and save it.  I was hoping that Sawfish would
improve upon that (and also be more light-weight, which it seems to be),
but its session management doesn't really seem to work well at all. :(
