Bug 314388

As @Thomas Lübking suggested I'm filing a new bug for this issue, I originally added this description in this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=161325

I'm not sure about how easy to implement is this but I agree that this is a much needed feature.
For example, my laptop's screen size is 17,1" / 1600x900 while my home monitor screen size is 23" / 1920x1080 so the rules I made for windows positioning in my laptop aren't honored when I use the bigger monitor.
Take a look of these screenshots pairs, first row sports the 1600x900 screenshots while the second row sports the 1920x1080 screenshots:

Seems we need to stop using the absolute (x0,y0) coordinates as a point of reference.
As Thomas explains, the actual window positioning "points resolution dependent rules (or percentual geometry ruling)".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change the screen resolution or attach an external monitor with a bigger resolution.
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Windows will honor their positions settings on the bigger resolution screen thus breaking the original layout.

Expected Results:  
The pretendend windows layout should be honored.

May be one way to workaround this problem is by adding an option to make each window positioning *relative* to something else, for example a panel, so this way when the user sets the windows positions he/she can make sure windows will be placed in the right place no matter what resolution have the screen at any given time.
