8678	guest window size is ignored	Mike Wilson		"Using a guest window with smaller size than the guest desktop (using scrollbars to access the different areas of the guest desktop) is not honoured between restarts.

Setting a smaller window size on a 1600x1200 guest and shutting it down results in this data in the virtual machine xml file:
{{{
      <ExtraDataItem name=""GUI/LastNormalWindowPosition"" value=""4,20,985,785""/>
}}}

The above looks fine, but when starting up the guest again, it expands to a larger size and updates the stored window position to this larger size (noticeable after shutting down again): 
{{{
      <ExtraDataItem name=""GUI/LastNormalWindowPosition"" value=""4,20,1592,1155""/>
}}}

Ticket #7042 is probably a related bug, where the guest window size is lost on every switch in and out of fullscreen."	defect	closed	GUI	VirtualBox 4.0.4	obsolete			Windows	Linux
