In the bug tracker are few open bugs, most important (due to the many
reports and affected users) is the one with the window position on
restore. Still not sure what's causing this.
And another one regarding failing to open files in a running instance
from the Windows Explorer. This happens when the filename is passed as
UTF-16 or UTF-32 (I guess it's UTF-16) and so contains NULL-bytes. I
hope we can fix this with some Windows API but I didn't look into this
deep enough yet.

And luckily, nobody except Frank noticed I created the branch in tags/
directory instead of branches/  :).
Thanks Frank for fixing it.
