There is (or was) a bug I submitted in RB 3.5 where the window

opened, and if not on any of the visible screens, forces it to a
default position (64,64 IIRC) on monitor 0.
I agree, it would be nice if REAL put some time into this issue.
Doesn't the Finder send an Apple event when the screen resolution or
depth changes?
