Description Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) 2005-04-27 16:20:42 UTC 
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu 5.04

Steps to reproduce:
1.  Create a folder.
2.  Create another folder.
3.  Open the first folder.
4.  Open the second folder.

What happens:
*   The second folder window opens *exactly* on top of the first one, making it
    unnecessarily difficult to see whether it actually opened.

What should happen:
*   The second folder window appears horizontally and vertically offset from the
    first one.

(This means that the default size and position of a folder window should be set
when the folder is first opened, and not before. This may be the case already.)
