Have you experimented with some of the Sawfish placement
schemes? (From the Sawfish control panel applet, Method of
placing windows:... it sounds like you may prefer "best fit" or
"first fit or interactive".)

If there is something you can make unique about each of the
terms (do they get titled? do you use uniquify-window-name?),
you can use Sawfish's Matched Windows feature to put each in a
specific place.
