Snapping to specific window sizes is completely ordinary for terminal applications, and the feature is widely supported at the window manager level. (See X11's ICCCM, 4.1.2.3. WM_NORMAL_HINTS Property: the width_inc and height_inc properties). It is not sane to remove widely supported

This has been happening consistently to a number of users (including myself) in Natty. We aren't clear on reproducibility, but it looks like all you have to do is have GDM log in automatically (so it doesn't unlock the keyring early) and have a keyring with a password set. So, I am marking this as
