Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
Adding any applet on the second screen of a dual X server configuration yields the following error:
"<Applet Name>" has quit unexpectedly
If you reload a panel object, it will automatically be added back to the panel.
Applets work fine on the first display. Adding applets on the second display worked fine in 10.10 and earlier.
I have a single dual-head Nvidia card which is configured for dual X servers. I.e. not TwinView. TwinView does not work well with my monitors.

Correction, this seems to occur only for certain applets. Specifically I'm having trouble with the following:
Window List
Window Selector
Workspace Switcher
Perhaps it is only applets that deal with windows on the second display.
