dear santa claus, my wishlist ordered by subjective priority:

1. maximizing windows: should maximize in the current window only and not over
all windows

2. toolbar: shouldn't stretch over two windows (i put one screen (logically ;-)
over the other to avoid this). a quick & dirty solution would be a vertical menu
bar.

3. popups (e.g. logout-menu) shouldn't pop up in the middle of two
screens


i'm using icewm 1.0.4 so forgive me if some features are already
implemented. and concerning the nested X server: i don't know if i use
it and what it is for (i compiled it though;).

there is also a chapter concerning window managers abilities in the
xinerama howto (http://www.ldp.at/HOWTO/Xinerama-HOWTO-8.html)

sl,

mig
