Ability to save size of resized HTML prompt

Questions & Suggestions
1

With KM 8’s “resizable” option for HTML prompts, is it possible to retrieve the size of the window or otherwise save it so that the next time I get prompted, the new size is automatically applied? (ideally, position, too!)

Figured it out:

function KMWindow() {
	winBounds = window.KeyboardMaestro.GetVariable("savedTestWindowPosition");
	if(!winBounds) {winBounds = "25,25,640,480";}
	return winBounds;
	} 

function savePosition() {
	window.KeyboardMaestro.SetVariable('savedTestWindowPosition', [window.screenX, window.screenY, window.outerWidth,window.outerHeight].join(',') );
	}

function submitWindow(event) {
	savePosition();
	window.KeyboardMaestro.Submit( event );
	}

Feature request, @peternlewis: Have the window handle a beforeUnload event so that whether the window’s submitted, cancelled, or just closed/escaped, we can call a function. I tried using this script and didn’t have success:

function KMInit() {
    window.addEventListener("beforeUnload", savePosition, true);
}

In case it’s useful for others, this event listener DOES work, so at least you can save the window position if you resize it:

window.addEventListener("resize", savePosition, true);

Demo macro that does this thing. Shout out to @DanThomas for pointing me in the right direction.
