Qt4 applications in X11 have "-geometry" option. I've made a change to
uim-toolbar-qt4 in the repository (r6937). With this change, you can set
position with this option:

  $ uim-toolbar-qt4 -geometry +10+10

BTW, uim-toolbar-qt4 in uim 1.6.x, which is in Debian experimental, should have
a better handler to grab.
