User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110212 Firefox/4.0b12pre

If I move a maximized window to another monitor and close Firefox, upon restart the window will appear on the monitor it was last non-maximized on.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a non-maximized window open.
2. Maximize the window.
3. Move the window to another monitor by either dragging the maximized title bar so it snaps to the top of the other monitor, or by Win-Shift-Left (or Right).
4. Close Firefox.
5. Restart Firefox.
Actual Results:  
The window appears on the monitor it was last non-maximized on.

Expected Results:  
The window should appear on the same monitor as when Firefox was closed.

This happens with a fresh profile, and Windows theme (Aero / Classic) does not affect the behaviour.
