The renaming of the option seems a good idea.

I'm don't know if this helps - konq uses it.  You might glance at it.

void KMainWindow::ignoreInitialGeometry	(	 )	
Used from Konqueror when reusing the main window.
Definition at line 943 of file kmainwindow.cpp.

The other hackish way is to try to resize after the window is sized using the previous window size.  AFAIK konsole resizing still doesn't work.
