Title:
  Large monitor on top of small one disables large windows to be dragged
  onto the bottom one

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am not sure whether this can be called a bug, because this behaviour
  is by design.

  See attached monitor_setup.jpg for my monitor setup.
  I work with a large monitor on top of my notebook-screen.

  Whenever there's a not maximized but large window (larger than the monitor 
below) on the top monitor and i want to drag it onto the bottom monitor it 
doesn't work. Since the window manager now declares those black spaces (in 
monitor_setup.jpg) as "dead zones" where no cursor or top bar of a window may 
enter, the top bar of the dragged window just stays ontop of those dead zones. 
Just as if i'd try to put a large object into a small container.
  To move the window correctly i first have to resize it so that it is smaller 
than the bottom screen and drag it then.

  What i would expect to happen:
  The window should be maximized (or resize to the largest possible size) on 
the smaller screen below.

  //edit:
  Removed a part saying that from the maximized window it works (it doesn't)
