That as far as I think wasn't the only cause for the stopping at the
edge. It makes it much easier to make a window scale to half of the
screen when moving it to the edge of the screen.

I have been using multi monitor setups for at least three releases and
for about 3-4 weeks in precise. Some things have gotten better some
worse. The stopping is annoying at some times but helps at other times.

I propose:
- -Reducing the sensitivity to stop to behave like this only when the
mouse is quite slow.
- -Making it only stop if you have grabbed a window
- -and if the launcher is set to hide and you approach from the right.

Thoughts?
