Here's another stab at the windowspawn global option.
It allows you to control where new windows are placed and can
be one of center, cursor, fullscreen, or random. If it's not
specified, the default behaviour is used (cursor).
It'd be nice if people could test this diff and provide some
feedback, such as "Yes, please" or "No, you moron!" ...
Thanks.
