grid plugin acts strange when using two monitors

[Alistair Buxton]

When I use the grid plugin keyboard shortcuts like ctrl-alt-2 and ctrl-alt-8 with gnome-terminal windows on my second monitor, the window is drawn in the correct position, but input is mapped to the first monitor. For example, if the window is at 0x0+100+100 on monitor two, then I would have to click within 0x0+100+100 on the first monitor to select the window. To reproduce:

1. Minimize *every* window on the current desktop (both monitors) or it won't work.
2. Open a gnome-terminal and drag to monitor 2 if necessary.
3. Press ctrl-alt-2
4. Click the desktop to unfocus gnome-terminal
5. Try to click in gnome terminal. Nothing happens.
6. Click in the top half of monitor 1 (which should be displaying empty desktop.) gnome-terminal receives the focus.
