Yesterday I was playing with an external monitor connected to my laptop, and I noticed that the shortcuts overlay appears on the external monitor when holding the Super key (while the mouse cursor is in that monitor).

The external monitor's resolution was 1440x900.
I tried other resolutions too: all good with 1280x1024 and 1152x864, but no overlay with 1024x768 and smaller.
The resolution of the laptop's screen is 1336x768 (no overlay).

So I guess the problem is that the overlay is too big (and yes, that's what the said).
The overlay should be made smaller. People with resolutions like 1024x768 should still be able to see the overlay!

And another (probably unrelated thing): with an external monitor connected, all notifications (notify-osd) are sent to the external monitor. I think they should appear on the laptop's screen (or be configurable).
