Bug Description
If you have an external monitor, gnome always selects the first display device listed by xrandr, instead you should be able to specify one.
You have no way to have the panel appear always on the same screen.

I'm fairly certain that I've been bitten by this as well. I have a dual head radeon card. When enabling the secondary display, both the upper and lower panels switch from my primary monitor to the secondary monitor. I am running an up-to-date Hardy i386 development release as of 22 March 2008.
