I fear Emacs could: by simply not providing coordinates to the window
manager, thus forcing the latter to make them up itself.
But this is a MINOR point anyway, I could even live with that. The main
point was that Emacs or my way of setting it up caused the window size
and position not to be dealt with the way I wanted. It could well be
that it's my set-up which forced Emacs to pass wrong information to the
window manager, but currently I don't see what's wrong and am therefore
asking the combined wisdom of this list.
Sincerely,
Rainer
