I've looked into this a little bit and there are two problems: 1) when centerWindowOnScreen() is called, the window has yet to be reflowed/sized so the window's width/height are (1,1). This is why it appears down and to the right of where you think it should be. 2) the screen object is just too stupid for use in this situation. In fact, it causes more harm than good with multiple monitors. We need a totally new API that understands primary screens and multiple monitors and we should not be using the screen object for anything in our code -- ever. That will have to come post beta- 1 and dan or I will have to write it.
adding dep for new screen object.
Depends on: 30898
