'
It would be much nicer if Dedit maintained a stack of prior locations of Dedit windows so that once you told it where to put a window, it would always put it there.  This works for the first two windows already, but not for any others.'
'
The best solution would be to allow Dedits in multiple processes simultaneously.'
