38077 - Window locations are no longer persisted

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 37480

(Core :: XUL, defect, P3)

Description

Trash the file 'localstore.rdf' in your profile directory. Now launch, put the 
navigator window where you want it, and quit. Relaunch, note that the window does 
not come up in your preferred location, but in the default location.

Window positions are saved within a session (a second window does come up in the 
preferred location).

No screenX/screenY entries are saved in the new localstore.rdf file.

And another thing! It does not remember my sidebarf state (hidden/visible)

I'm pretty sure this has to do with the fact that we're leaking the
nsXULDocument since Ben checked in. We could move the call to Persist from the
nsXULDocument's dtor over to the SetScriptGlobalObject() method, which should
make this more robust.

notwithstanding waterson's last comment, this is a dup of bug #37480
