I don't understand what trouble '0:0 upper left corner always' creates. My
screenshot's "HDTV" is at 0,0 left of my 1920x1200 at 1920,0 to match the room
physics, so mouse on session start moved left goes left, moved right goes right,
moved down hits menu starter, panel is on right screen, I can move apps between
screens and have windows straddle screens. ???
