Compiz' window placement plugin I believe does default to placing all
new windows on the current active monitor. However this is a problem
with the proprietary NVIDIA driver, because that's one of the only
drivers that treats all monitors as a single output. Because NVIDIA does
not implement the Xrandr extension properly (but most other drivers do).

Please run "ccsm" and scroll down to Window Management > Place Windows.
In there you will find a few options for controlling and customizing
window placement.
