Comment 8 for bug 157497

Yes, I too went looking for a patch and found that same one, and am using it right now on my system (using the random placement mode :)

I contacted the author about updating the patch and implementing a better cascaded window placement, like he mentioned in the website, and he responded he would look into it. Hopefully we'll get a new patch from him, and the maintainers here take into consideration merging it into the distribution.
