@johnlea: well, there is one problematic case: if the launcher is set to
autohide and it's placed only on one screen, edges shouldn't be sticky.

For example, i have autohidden launcher on the left edge of my laptop
screen (with an external display positioned to the right of the laptop,
see attached).  There should be no sticky edges in this situation, but
for me the edge is sticky when travelling leftwards - and it's driving
me nuts!!

Title:
  Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display
  manager and Launcher placement is "All Displays"

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Released
Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  See also: bug 987787

  Release: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
  Unity Version: 5.10.0-0ubuntu6
  Expected: Sticky edges turns off when the switch is set to Off
  Actual: Sticky edges remains on regardless of switch position

  I've got two dual monitors running as an extended desktop.  By default
  the Launcher placement property is set to "All Displays" and sticky
  edges is set to "On".

  I like having the launcher on both desktops, but sticky edges is
  driving me nuts.  So, naturally, I turned off sticky edges and left
  the launcher on all displays.  Unfortunately, it seems that the On/Off
  switch for sticky edges serves no purpose when Launcher Placement is
  set to "All Displays".

  The option to disable sticky edges in this scenario should be allowed,
  or at the very least the On/Off switch should be disabled and forced
  to "On" as to not confuse the user.
