Maybe not...


In any case: with an empty configuration, the pane configuration is supposedly 
"autodetected".  [gtk_paned_set_position() is not called in
main_pane_load_window_geometry()].

Some testing seems to show that the ""autodetected" "pane position" varies
based upon ??.  (E.G., With different SVN's the results starting with an empty
configuration seem to be different even when showing the same capture file ?!).

Further research required.
