it's not a hard dependecy on the instace, the sni geometry handling is just 
plain broken.
the workaround operates on configure events on the mapped window which will go 
nowhere if there's no running wm.

the client needs to handle the no-wm case, ie. configure the window correctly, 
but to repeat myself: such requirement implies that either sni or 
qwidget/qwindow is completely fucked up.

qwindow/qwidget::setGeometry should justwork(tm)
