That is > not something any code in Emacs can do. 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.
