Request: Show window coordinates when mouse hovers over window title bar #564

Request:
When a user holds the mouse still over the title bar of a window for a certain 
amount of time, display the X,Y coordinates of that window. This will remove 
all the time consuming guesswork for specifying window coordinates in batch 
files.

Alternatives in case mouse hovers are difficult to implement (some among many):
 - Display window coordinates when dragging.
 - Right-click titlebar to display coordinates.
 - Additional button in title bar that displays window info.
 - HWDiag command to print coordinates of a running program (this is actually probably the option that makes the most sense, since it reduces the amount of potential "why are the window coordinates displayed?" questions from new players -- the information is not available until you're actually at the point where you would want it).
