[Bug 1004371] Re: "smart" window placement puts windows on top of each other while there is plenty of space

the smart window placement fails on the second output. if the smart
window placement plugin is set to use all output devices, it refuses to
do so and only uses the first. changing the output into a single large
one (under compiz general settings > display settings) solves this
problem but introduces a new one. it will allow smart window placement
to spawn on both monitors, but (of course) the border between the two
monitors will be gone. this makes maximizing a window spawn both
screens, and the smart window placement will split some of the new
windows between both screens.
