Well, we've established what you want, but that doesn't necessarily mean that we'll implement it.
So far the reasoning seems to be:
- you really want the feature
- GNOME 2 / Windows has it
Unlike the case of the window list, nothing in the top bar (except for the app menu to some extent) is tied to a particular monitor, so there's a much weaker case here IMHO.
(I'll also note that this wouldn't be a "cheap" option, but require work on lots of details throughout the stack - we'd need to figure out the overview (only include the activities button on the primary monitor? or allow an overview on any monitor?), get API to control the brightness of a particular monitor (rather than the built-in one), don't use "the monitor with the top bar" as indicator for the primary monitor in Settings, ...)
