Can you imagine if this was happening on other operating systems? There was a bug report that there was no option to start windows centered - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1298263 Yet this is not the end of the problem - the windows should open in the center *by default*, not as a hidden option in dconf -> org/gnome/mutter/center-new-windows.
