My experiment with non-centered new window placement on Plasma was concluded after a week.
My conclusion: My eyes are naturally resting on the currently opened stuff. Having a window open voluntarily in a place where I don’t currently have anything is hard to predict, and invariably resulted in me having to wait for the window to appear, and then drag it to a sensible place to use it.
A bit annoying on a laptop, absolutely horrible on my ultra wide monitor. Back to centered windows I go!
