Summary: split out window placement into proc so plugins can override

Initial Comment:
This makes it easy for people to customize these calculations based on their Window Manager, desires, etc.  Unfortuantely, Tk/X11 makes it hard because it doesn't give you the measurements of the window chrome, only the window contents.  more info here:
