If the door is set correctly, it will have a slight tendency to swing
closed or open against the wall. Not many people hanging doors today even
know that, let alone know how to achieve it. It appears yours was hung
correctly.

However your question is how to keep it where you want it. The simple
answer is to remove one or more hinge pins and bend them very slightly with
a hammer.

Several of my interior doors, instead of staying in whatever position
I want them in, will swing further open or closed (unless of course
they're closed all the way).

Are there any simple remedies for this? By simple I mean, short of
reframing or rehanging the door.

I don't want to use door stops. I'd just like to figure out how I can
make the doors balanced enough to remain open at 5 or 20 or 40 or
whatever number of degrees I've opened them.
