Title:
  Mouse pointer is blocked on dual monitor setup

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On a dual monitor setup, by default, the mouse pointer is "blocked"
  when trying to go to the other screen. This is a very annoying bug
  since the user shouldn't be restricted to switch screens with his
  mouse pointer.

  The fix for that is downloading compizconfig-settings-manager and
  setting the "Edge Stop Velocity" to 1. This is way beyond a newbie
  would actually know, so I request that this option come by default.

  Thanks,
