I did some testing with the place plugin and I wasn't able to make it spawn windows in such a "dead zone" - could you let me know if this happens only sometimes or more often than not in certain situations.
As for the pointer thing, the X server confines the pointer to the actual screen size (!= monitor sizes) - I could use the edge windows there to automatically warp the pointer back into the monitor if it goes into a dead zone, but I'm not sure about the feasibility of this.
Hey Benjamin,
