[AD] good X citizens

Why do Allegro X windows always pop up in the top-left most corner?
Window placement should be left to the window manager.

I tried to find why this was by creating an Xlib program, following
the steps taken by the X graphics driver, but couldn't emulate the
behaviour (i.e. Michael, please fix this :-)

Also (and this applies to Windows, too), perhaps there ought to be a
way to pass close window events onto the user program (e.g. setting
a flag).  This would be the first step to making Allegro better for
general applications (which require resizing, maximising, etc.)
Unlike the other things, quitting is also important for games.
