(Get the code!)
It would be nice if the primary included gnome-shell extensions, eg apps-menu and places-menu (and by extension the topbar) supported multi-monitor similar to how the bottom bar 'window-list' currently does. This was easy to achieve on Gnome 2 and now via MATE (out of the box) but there does not appear to be any way to do this with Gnome 3. This also leads to there not being a way to do this via 'Gnome Classic'. Even Windows finally (in W10) does this better out of the box than Gnome 3.
BTW - Intel has supported IGP triple head since Ivy Bridge (2012) so it is very cheap to deploy a triple head system (~ $200 for 3 1080p monitors). AMD supports up to quad head in their IGPs.
This has been blocking me from moving to Gnome 3 since its release and I finally decided to write a bug report about it. I have had all multi-monitor systems since prior to 2004.
