Settings class has special support for windows (and controls having a 
Settings property).

So, for windows, you just have to write 'Settings.Write(Me)' to save its 
geometry, and 'Settings.Read(Me)' to restore it.

You can't use the default value argument in that case, as you can't 
guess the format used for storing the window data.
