Sorry, it is not, but I've just checked without the "WM-placing patch", would that be needed? Besides, I agree that increasing flexibility without introducing new command line options is a good thing. Thus I would prefer regularly using "-geometry 50%:50%" from having another option like "-wm-placing-window". I would vote for the default to be to let the window manager place the window, although I see no need for myself in it. Greets, Kiste
