Obnoxious window management

	When I open an app in a new window, then start arranging it on 
the workspace it's in, I want two abilities. 

	One is to be able to size each window (including any already 
there) with the mouse, to any size and shape I find convenient. 

	The other is to be able to position it anywhere I please -- if I 
have more than two, I get very picky about how I cascade them (if that's 
the word), so that from then on I don't have to tolerate being distracted 
by arrangement any more.

	These abilities have always been SOP. Even on foul OSs. Till now. 

	Suddenly, if I get one edge of a window within an inch or so of 
the edge of the display (not counting panels), it jumps over to that 
edge, and refuses arrantly to stay put. 

	I suspect this obnoxiousness may be called by the new term "snap."

	Whatever it is, how do I get it off my machine, and keep it off?

	I'm running XFCE4 under F20, if that matters.
