Hi all,

thanks everyone for the valuable input, yet another thread with useful 
ideas and no distraction!

It seems there are as many preferences as many users with this window 
geometry thing, so I'm going to make it flexible/configurable with two 
booleans.

auto_save_window_geometry: if true, attempt to save (persist) window 
geometry, else don't (unless the explicit save button is used). Loading 
window geo is always automatic: if values present in the config tree (ever 
saved with whichever technique) it is loaded. The user can still get rid 
of this by removign the values from the config.

save_window_geometry_in_design: if true, window geometry is saved with the 
design, if false, saved in user's home. How exactly anything is saved with 
design will be controlled by a third, more generic flag. Currently the per 
design subtree of the config is saved as attributes in the pcb design, 
later on the global flag will provide an option to save these in a 
separate file.


I believe this setup covers all use cases; if you think your case is left 
out, please let me know.

Regards,

Igor2
