Power-cycling the monitor with a Foot window open changes it's size and position.

[vanfanel]

Describe the bug
Turning off the monitor and then one again, causes Foot size and position to be altered.

For example, if I have in foot.ini:
initial-window-size-chars=90x26
then of course Foot windows are created of that 90x26 size, and centered.

But if I leave a Foot window open and idle, and power-cycle the monitor, Foot window becomes smaller and placed somewhere else in the desktop.

Maximized windows don't seem to be affected.

To Reproduce

1. Open a Foot terminal window, of 90x26 for example.
2. Turn the monitor off and on again.
3. The Foot terminal window is now of a different size (smaller) and is at a different position on the desktop!

Expected behavior
I believe Foot's window should keep the same size and position when power-cycling the monitor.

More information
This is apparently a compositor bug. Foot's author says that it simply uses the size and position provided by the compositor, so some of this information seems to be lost on monitor power-cycling:

I recommend using the preserve-output plugin if you are power cycling your monitors. It should prevent the bug.

I added preserve-output to my plugin list, but the bug is still showing.
