There is a menubar, yes.

I turn the stack into a standalone on OSX, with the menubar hidden, 
and the standalone has the same upward shift problem.  There is an 
option to save the location of the standalone.  User puts window 
where he wants it, clicks the SAVE button, and it gets the loc of the 
standalone and stores it.

In the preopen stack handler, it gets the stored loc and sets the loc 
of the stack to it.

Upward shifted by approximately a titlebar's height.

At what place in the opening sequence is the window reduced to hide 
the menubar?  Or would it be better to get the loc and adjust it to 
account for the menubar before storing it?
