Interesting, it might be easier to tell the user to create a new workspace 
It seems that the location (row, column) can't be extracted for some reason?
Also another bug in Bridge CS6, it will crash if you close the palette.
Here is some test code I was using....
//#target bridge
test();
function test(){
var SP = new TabbedPalette( app.document, "Test", "testTab", "script", "left", "top");
SP.content.onResize = function(){
var b = this.bounds;
pnl.bounds = b;
this.layout.resize(true);
SP.content.layout.layout(true);
}
var pnl = SP.content.add("panel", undefined , "");
pnl.alignChildren = ["center", "fill"];
var mainBtnGp = pnl.add("group");
mainBtnGp.orientation = "column";
var titleGp = mainBtnGp.add("group");
titleGp.alignment ="column";
var title = titleGp.add("statictext", undefined, "Test Panel");
var g = title.graphics;
g.font = ScriptUI.newFont ("Arial", 20);
var gp90 = mainBtnGp.add("group");
var bnds = gp90.add('button',undefined,'Bounds');
var gp110 = mainBtnGp.add("group");
gp110.alignment ="column";
var dl = [ "Upper Left","Upper Right","Center","Lower Left", "Lower Right","Remove Palette"];
ulBtn = gp110.add("dropdownlist", undefined, dl);
ulBtn.selection=0;
bnds.onClick=function(){
alert("Panel Bounds \r" +SP.content.bounds.toString() +
"\rTitle = " +SP.title + "\rID = " +SP.id + "\rRow = " + SP.paletteRow +"\rColumn = " + SP.paletteColumn);
}
ulBtn.onChange = function(){
switch(this.selection.index){
case 0 :SP.setLocation("left", "top"); break;
case 1 :SP.setLocation("right", "top");break;
case 2 : SP.setLocation("center", "middle");break;
case 3 : SP.setLocation("left", "bottom");break;
case 4 : SP.setLocation("right", "bottom");break;
case 5 : SP.remove();break;
default : break;
}
}
SP.content.layout.layout(true);
}
