This gets worse (in a 2 monitor setup): now even the dolphin main window does
not remember its size any more!!

BUT, now i see a pattern:
like in the kate-case, the multi-monitor window sizing is severly broken

ok, findings:
1)
- open a shell on laptop screen, type 'dolphin'.
- dolphin opens on laptop screen
- resize the window, close it
- run dolphin on commandline again 
- dolphin remembers its previous size

2) 
- open a shell on 4k screen , type dolphin
- dolphin opens on 4k screen 
- resize dolphin window, close it
- restart dolphin on commandline, it opens again on 4k screen but with the
previous size


3) 
- run dolphin within bash on laptop screen
- it appears on laptop screen. Resize it (e.g. make it absurdly long), close it
- go to bash on 4k screen, run dolphin
- dolphin opens on 4k screen with the absurdly long size as done on laptop
screen

So, window size parameters are ONLY remembered, if the dialog (dolphin, saveas,
...) is displayed (and resized) on screen 1.
The explains my chromium saveas-dialog... i started chromium accidentially once
only on laptop screen and resized the saveas dialog (this sizing will then be
remembered, normally my chromium** browser start on 4k screen only). Therefore
i have some sane size-settings. 

But, the default values of saveas/dolphin/others? (well, yes, kate of course)
on 4k screen when they have never been displayed on screen1 (laptop) is ....
640x480 (or close to it).

I really don't think this is a 'good' workaround to explain users to move the
dialog to screen1 and resize so that the windows remember their sizes???
Please investigate (and fix).... :-D
