This is one example I can remember that one window will NOT remember its 
position:

1. move the window from position P0 to P1.
2. close that window with the dreaded [X] WM button.
3. quit application.

Thats it, when you later relaunch QJC, the subject window will surely 
reappear on the older P0 position, instead of that last P1 which is 
bluntly forgotten.

This is old and "stable" behavior ;) and any suggestion on working 
around it is therefore welcome. Patches' even better :))

Bye now.
