Yeah, it seems to have regressed quite badly from GNOME 2 in this,
actually. GNOME 2 would remember most of my window sizes / positions
across two displays - it only got Firefox wrong (it'd usually be on the
wrong display). Shell gets just about everything wrong. I usually have
full-screen Evolution and gedit windows on the left hand screen,
full-screen Firefox on the right, and a full-width but only 80 lines
high terminal on the right. Shell remembers which windows are maximized
but not which head they were on, and opens the terminal at 80x24, in the
wrong place.
