when opening Firefox application, the window position is not remembered. I set it to my right screen and maximize it to the screen, but everytime I quit and start the app, it defaults to the left screen. This applies to opening new windows as well - these will maximize vertically but not horizontally to my monitor.

Last version remembered both where I wanted the browser window and what size the last window I was using was...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Opened the application, set window position (right monitor) and size (max h+v)
2. Quit - reopened app, defaults to left screen maxes out vertically but not horizontally. Reset window position and size
3. as above... 
Actual Results:  
doesn't work, after restart, et al.

Expected Results:  
remembered the position and size of the window
Version: unspecified → 2.0 Branch
Reproducible on linux, XOrg also.

Actually the window size is remembered (if I check localstore.rdf, the new size there after exiting firefox/seamonkey), but on starting firefox again the window size is constrained to the size of the smaller monitor, even when the window is shown on the larger one.
