There really should be a hotkey for "move window to primary display" or somesuch. The worst is when just the top "cleat" of the window is inaccessible, making it impossible to simply move the window yourself.

Alternately, a CLI tool to just trash a specific app's window settings, or a system control panel that lets you browse these settings, would be incredible.

In every GUI I've used, there are tiling or snapping hotkeys, something like Super + Arrow keys or something, that will usually put the window somewhere sane.

Hold down meta and you can drag the window from anywhere (on gnome at least thats a default)
