Use whole desktoppane as coordinate system in MDI not only center area for floating frames in MDI as it is now. Current behaviour - default position of Source Editor in MDI is [0,0]. This is kept when you switch from MDI to SDI but it is different from default position in SDI. This behaviour cause problems see http://openide.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=16263
IMHO,it makes sense to change it carefully. Target Milestone -> 3.4
Reassigning to Jiri for evaluation. Jiri, please check for duplications, think about what these enhancements will need to be implemented right and write down your observations and thoughts to the enhs themselves.
Eval: I think to achieve this such a implementation of enhancement issue 10601 is enough. When you switch from MDI to SDI then the windows size can be set on default either by user's demand or automatically.

it looks like some window problems after switching from SDI to MDI are caused by this issue, increasing priority. It's not so much connected with #10601
bug fixed - however coordinate system wasn't changed, just erratic behaviour in ModeData.setProps2Mode was repaired.

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
