From a cursory glance at the bug report, it seems that the windows that
don't open centre screen are, by and large, opened by the user and those
that are centred are opened by CM because they require user action to
allow CM to continue the current operation.  So, to me, window placement
as it stands looks like a design decision.  One that I'm happy with, too.

Default window placement can be overridden anyway.  At least, it can in
KDE, but I'm pretty sure most other WM/DEs have similar options.
