On multi-monitor setups, a menu bar appears on each screen. It falls a
little short on the implementation details, but at least your concern
is addressed by this.

I've maxed out my mouse acceleration settings, which gives me the
ability to move from edge to edge in one movement. The default for
this needs to be reevaluated.
