  The default behaviour is to do nothing.  And unity-greeter defaults to
mirror mode by disabling xrandr plugin.

unity-greeter (0.1.0-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low
...
    - Disable xrandr gnome-settings-daemon plugin - always mirror the displays


The proposed patch will allow system admin to add "xinerama" mode as default 
option. Alternative workaround is to pop up a question asking user to configure 
the monitor setup ( which could be painful ) .  

__self:  test patch ( lacking the h/w to currently test this ) .

** Patch added: "proposed patch based of upstream code"
