I have just updated to Kubuntu 15.04 and can't find out how to change the position of krunner
(the little search window that appears when I press Alt+F2) so that it appears in the center of the screen instead of at the top. Is this still possible? If yes, how can I change this?

I was able to use this workaround in kubuntu 16.04: I created a special Window Rule for the krunner window to enforce a certain screen position.
Details: In the system settings application, goto Workspace, Window Management, Window Rules
krunner
into the field (or use the Detect Window Properties button)570,400
for about the middle of my screen (that may vary depending on the display)Anyway, this window is meant to be placed in the upper part of the screen - if set too close to the bottom, it will jump upward when the list of findings is long enough.
