As announced a while ago, we are migrating to gitlab, and bugs that haven't
seen activity in the last year or so will be not be migrated, but closed out in
bugzilla.

If this bug is still relevant to you, you can open a new issue describing the
symptoms and how to reproduce it with gtk 3.22.x or master in gitlab:

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are moving bugs to NEEDINFO if
they haven't seen activity in more than a year. If this issue is still
important to you and still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please reopen it
and we will migrate it to gitlab.

You're mixing things up. This bug is about centering windows. Saving window
size and stat works just fine under Wayland. Saving positions does not, but
that is different from centering.

The lack of a protocol to setup the window position breaks the behavior of many
applications that try to restore their previous states when loading (window
position and size, and whether it's maximized or not).

I don't really know about the limitations of wayland protocols, but this is
certainly a regression.

As Matthias said, there is currently no support for providing any positioning
intentions, as it is generally up to the compositor to do any positioning. That
being said, it is possible to introduce such a protocol, the hard thing is to
decide what the protocol should do.

Such a protocol would for example not be "position at (x,y)" but either asked
by the client itself i.e. a "please center me when I show up", or done by
adding a field to the .desktop file which gnome-shell would use to figure out
when to center. There is currently no consensus of what approach to do here yet
though.

the wayland protocol(s) we are using has no provision for centering windows.
