Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

I have an nvidia driven twinview setup with two displays and one big desktop. I can drag windows to the left of the left screen and the right of the right screen, and grid will maximise those windows out, but I can't drag to the left of the right screen or the right of the left screen. See screenshots.
