Although I (think) I originated this bug, there is (for me) a perfectly
acceptable workaround, which is to have two panels. One on the left hand
screen and another on the right. Then I distribute the things I want
between them.

So, I can't help but have some sympathy with its importance being low.

Also, I suspect that (part of) the problem is also the thing that
prevents a program from occupying the whole of *both* screens, instead
of just the screen that you are on, when you maximise. I think that this
is much better behaviour.

What you lose on the swings you, may, gain on the roundabouts...
