Bug Description

In my current set up I'm using two displays, the one on my laptop (1440x900) and an external display (1920x1200). The desktop is aligned at the top of both screens. AWN (0.4.0 from ubuntu repositories) is configured to be at the bottom of the smaller display using Intellihide. Everything is displayed correctly and AWN fades out as it should. Problem is, because my smaller display has a lesser height than the other one, I have some additional "room" beneath the screen, so my mouse cursor doesn't stop at the bottom edge of the screen.

That makes it rather hard to make AWN appear again, because apart from clicking somewhere off screen, I have to aim for the 2 or 3 pixels at the bottom that seem to trigger it's reappearance.

Is it possible to show the dock again, as soon as the cursor is beneath the dock, but not on another screen?

I added a screenshot, In case my english failed me.
