I would like a window rule that just remembers the last size/position of the window and restore it when the window is opened.

how would you even imagine that being tracked? Just by class?

Like all other rules: by class and/or title

Could the feature request in #1426 also solve this one here? Because that one seems a bit more predictable (you know exactly when to save something and therefore where to save something.)

If you use layout window you do not need to know window positions but just in what order to open them. For floating windows you do need to know. Currently I have a command line script that open the right windows in order on my workspaces to handle this.

Some windows don't remember their size and I don't know how big they will be until trigger floating. Sometimes they keep the size of tiling in floating state. That's quite annoying.

I have the similar problem. I use Thunar as file manager and set it as floating window. Every time I open it, it shows up in the minimum size, I have to use meta + right mouse button to resize to normal size. It would be better if the window rule that remembers last size is available.
