In the hope that somebody on the development team reads these posts, I'd like to reiterate a gripe I've made before: that OmniWeb forces you to chose one predetermined window location and size by going Window>Save Window Size, so that if I want to place a window in a different location, or choose a different size, I must do so manually (which can be a drag in both senses of the word). Omni likes to boast (and very justifiably so) about how Mac-like OmniWeb is. Well, here is a significant and, I think, quite unjustified departure from a standard Mac GUI convention, according to which an app. opens a window in the same location, and of the same size and shape, as its immediate predecessor. Why can't OmniWeb adhere to standard GUI conventions EXACTLY so its ergonomic behavior is unannoyingly predicatable? Or, if anybody actually likes this peculiar window behavior, at least can't you offer it to them as a non-default Preference option?
