Probably not.
However, there is at least one other situation where the OS will move windows for you.
Let's say you have Display A and B, both are connected to the computer, and the menu bar is configured to be on Display B.
If you disconnect Display B, the menu bar will automatically move to Display A - along with all of the windows that were on Display B.
If you the reconnect Display B, the menu bar will automatically move back to Display B - along with all of the windows that used to be on Display B.
Well, this is how it works in 10.6.3. In 10.5.8, when Display B was reconnected, only the Carbon based windows were moved.
It is unclear to me that reconnecting Display B should necessarily move windows, but, perhaps, there is a good reason for it that I am missing.
