The entire thing sounds as if the problem would be that the session restorage in kwin overrides the placement for restored windows (with the restored position)

That's however not a bug (at least it's intended) and I've no idea why that's relevant to the weird geometry handling of SNI items (which looks *faaaar* too complex - the position of remapped windows is usually maintained by QWidget ...)
