Subject: bug#7335: 23.1; Window geometry on emacsclient windows

emacsclient does not accept the --geometry option, but on the other 
hand, it doesn't respect the --geometry setting given to the daemon 
either. That means there is no way to control the size of an emacsclient 
window at startup. This is probably a missing feature rather than a bug.
