Bug Description

Title says it all, it's killing me to resize every window each time I start gufw, especially the main window which can show a ton of rules. As such, it should remember its dimensions and maximization state.

Thank you :) I can't tell you how often I need to file this specific bug report on pretty much all the applications out there. If you need an example of an implementation, you could take a look at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Especto/specto/main/annotate/head%3A/spectlib/notifier.py for the methods restore_size_and_position and save_size_and_position

In particular, it is important to make sure that, when creating the window, the size is set before actually showing the window to the user (to avoid having its size "jump" around).

Hi!
I fixed the window size.
The window position is set by GNOME (little applications as Firefox set the position, and GNOME set it dynamically).
Thanks by all your improvements ;)
