I can't say, because I don't either know Gnope nor the multiload applet. 
But I think we have a volunteer who will find out :-)

Ok. It's your and Jerry's decision.

I don't know wether it's possible to code, shurely not implemented at 
the moment. And I don't think it's necessary. If you have two displays,
