I'm not sure why only xterm had the problem. It was hard to
understand all the stuff going on with the initial window state.
Hopefully, the cleaned up code will prove more robust in the
future. After all, it wasn't as complicated as we always thought,
only hard to understand because all of the global variables. The
information was passed doen a simple hierarchy:
(Re)Capture code
|
v
HandleMapRequestKeepRaised
|
V
AddWindow (modified by session.c in MatchWinToSM)
|
v
Placement code
|
v
Icon placement code
Collecting the information in a struct and then passing it from
function to function was easy enough - with only a few side
entrances.

Actually, I wouldn't use it if a normal restart didn't preserve
the current viewport.

Or better: write explanation of the arguments to Iconify(). I'll
write a few comments on the new data type. The Iconify()
arguments are gone anyway.
