I see, but I have a case where I want gnp to pop up fresh in the same
place every time it is started, regardless of whether I move it around
during the session.

However I'm not sure I properly understand the way it currently works,
because I can't see the role of default x-pos and default y-pos in
Preferences->Window.  It looks as if when Save Window Position on Exit is
checked, they will be over-written on exit, and when it isn't checked,
they will be ignored when gnp starts up because the option isn't selected.
Am I confused?

Ok, I'll see what I can manage.
