That's an Apple window manager issue; with drawers like the file browser, it attempts to remember which side you had it on last, but if that side of the window is too close to the edge of the screen when reopened, it will automatically move the drawer to the side which has more room.
I obviously can't speak for the developer, but I do not believe this is something that can be "fixed", and even if the above behavior was implemented in a buggy fashion I doubt anyone but Apple could fix it =)

When opening a folder in TextMate, sometimes the "file browser" thingy opens on the right and sometimes it opens on the left.
Does anyone know how to make it always open on the left?
Thanks, Simon
