Comment 3 for bug 269809

[Marking unconfirmed because I haven't tested with trunk.]

The metacity window manager can have keyboard shortcuts for moving the
current window to the edge of the screen. You can bind these with
gconf; for instance, the following command will bind Ctrl-Alt-r to
move the current window to the right edge of the screen:

gconftool-2 --type=string --set /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_side_e '<Control><Alt>r'

This works fine with most windows, but Firefox windows immediately
move back to their original position.
