Thomas,

Expected behavior would be to restore the window exactly where it was left.
That means negative coordinates are valid. The code that restores
settings messes
things up, I guess by using -1 to signify "no settings found" or
something of that sort.
That could be changed to some magic value, say -99999 or whatever, and
make sure
reasonably large range of desktop coordinates is restored properly. Extended
desktops frequently use negative coords.

Thanks,
MK
