I'm so happy somebody else has mention it. The current behaviour is very annoying for me too. I use mainly the vertical mode. Every time I detach a client and later I attach it again, I have to rearrange the sizes of all clients. Also when I maximize (Alt-M) a client and later I normalize (Alt-M) that client again. -- Ivan F.
