It does? That's awesome. I think putting things back where the user
put them is a good reason all by itself; I always hate it when I need
to move my work laptop somewhere, because all my windows from the big
monitor get squished onto the little one and reorganized.
Alas, my work laptop won't get to move to 10.6 until there's a 10.7.

Is there a way to configure a Cocoa window so it will follow the

Is it even a good idea?
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.
