Research direction
Start with the two screenshots and the reported Fedora 23, Cinnamon 2.8.6, and Xorg 1.18 environment; no source file or test is identified in the issue. Reproduce window centering with a panel present and trace the relevant desktop window-management entry point. Done means centered windows account for the panel height rather than overlapping or ignoring it.
