I hadn’t noticed that, so I checked and my use-cases they also seem to be 
working now.  I put up some xterms, don’t move them, put my machine to sleep, 
and when it wakes up the X windows are still where I left them.

It also appears that the case of X11 having the wrong menu bar also seems to be 
gone.  (Select X11 in space #2.  Click on the background to bring Finder to the 
front.  Use command-tab to select an application in space #1.  Use command-tab 
to select X11.  Previously this would bring me back to space #2 with X11, but 
the menu bar would still be the previous application.)

I’m running 2.7.10_rc2 with macOS Sierra.
