Hack for the vertical case - for comment
This is a hack to gnome-panel that addresses the case of monitors in a vertical stack and a panel at the bottom of the not-bottom monitor;
this hack seems to work with metacity - it would be easy to generalise to the other edges.
What do people think - sure it's not a full answer - and I don't know what other window managers would make of it?
