This is a wishlist item, then.
For the record, you can change the window placement in the compiz
settings manager's 'put window' plugin.
Thanks for the report!
** Summary changed:
- All applications launch in the top-left corner
+ New windows should be placed in the same place as when they were
To encounter the problem, I logged in and opened any app, and noticed it opens
in top-left corner.
This also occurs when logging in as guest.
The behavior I expected was that it remember the last position or open
somewhere where my attention is likely to be (i.e. somewhere more in the
center).
