On Linux, the main window always return to a annoying default position and size, it's terrible have to move back every time you close the program.

@JeffryBooher Did you say that Linux CEF doesn't support window placement? Or was this something different?

@ingorichter yep. The Linux impl does not have CEF placement capabilities. Furthermore, the data used to communicate the desired size and position is not compiled into the struct on Linux so the shell would need to do some wonky stuff to make the placement work.

The positioning is not supported in a standard way on any platform with our current implementation of CEF. Hopefully that will be remedied and standard Javascript window positioning can be used with window.open() when we move to a later version of CEF but there is still a question of whether Linux will support it.

@JeffryBooher I don't think this is about window.open() -- it's about the main Brackets window that is opened when you launch the app. That would make this a duplicate of open bug #7174, though, so I'll close this.
