What I want to do is make a way to get information from TDE in order to manipulate the desktop/location of a window, so that I can restore it to its previous location after logout/login.
That's a strange comment. Here "things" I have open when I do a shutdown open back up on the same desktop they were on --- if the "thing" re-opens on a re-boot at all. Most notable, konsole windows re-open in the previous desktop -- as well, konqueror does, too.

Yeah. The problem I have is with my favourite text editor, X2, which is badly implemented in X and doesn't provide most of the X attributes to the window manager. It is unfortunately closed-source freeware originally written for OS/2, and the code owner is unwilling to fix numerous issues or share the code with non-C experts, so I'm trying to kludge around its desktop interface limitations. Its user interface is (IMO) much superior to GUI-based text editors.
