Thank you for the detailed steps I was able to reproduce the issue.
Wireshark tries to restore the last window locations and sizes upon
restart. It was
implemented to please Windows users AFAIK where window placement was less
logical with GTK2+. I plan looking into migrating a Wireshark on
Windows to GKT3+
and check if we can drop the window placement code upstream.
BTW I played with gedit to see how it honors --geometry under GNOME,
and for some values
it worked as expected, but when the set size was big or close to +0+0
they did not exactly take
effect.
I use awesome thus I would have never found this bug. :-)
