  regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: notify-osd

  I use nvidia TwinView (one X desktop across two monitors).
  notification-daemon was apparently sensitive to this (presumably
  through Xinerama info?) and would popup on my primary screen.

  notify-osd seems to be unaware of this, and appears in the top right
  of the overall viewport, which is on my secondary screen, and less
  visible, so less useful as a notifier.

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#position>: "If any windows are
  open, a bubble should appear on whichever display contains the largest
  fraction of the area of the focused window at the moment the bubble
  starts appearing. If no windows are open, a bubble should appear on
  whichever display the first pointer is on at the moment the bubble
  starts appearing."
