Consider the following scenario:
* There are two displays
* The user drags a window to the right edge of the left screen
* An orange rectangle will fill the right half of the left screen suggesting that uppon release of the mouse button the window will fill this region.
* Move the mouse pointer a few pixels on the right screen.
* The orange rectangle remains on the left screen.
* Release the mouse button
* Result: the window fills the left half of the right screen instead of the right half of the left screen (that's what the orange rectangle suggested).
I made a screen capture of this wrong behaviour and attached it to this report.
