I am going to second this request to remember the window size of
applications. I have tried devilspie for quite some time but it was not
fitting my needs, and usability sucks for something that a user would
expect to be normal behavior. I also switch with the same machine
between different resolutions and screens. So just remembering the last
known window size will not be sufficient, some minimal and maximal are
nice. I would first request the most basic support of remembering if an
screen was maximized or not this will catch 90% of my annoyances.

Thank in advance,
