Bug#443933: metacity window position also affected by font changes

[Michael Shuler]

Hello,

I just wanted to concur on the top-left window stacking behavior in
current testing metacity_2.22.0-1_i386, although I have not tried to
kill/restart metacity or change it's startup priority.  I am not certain
of previous versions, since I used XFCE for quite a few years, and
recently switched to a default install of Debian Lenny with gnome on one
system.

Saved sessions do not honor placement and stack all windows top-left.
Opening of new applications or windows, of for instance iceweasel, all
stack top-left.  Seems kind of brain-dead.

This window stacking appears to be the standard behavior of metacity
from a bit of research I did [0], and this is the one serious annoyance
I have testing out moving to gnome.
