Bug description:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As seen in 12.04: Precise beta1
Re-iterating my blog comment after the design team asked for feedback
on the per-monitor launcher feature:
http://design.canonical.com/2012/01/launcher-reveal-
prototype/#comment-23596
I regularly use a multi-monitor setup. I want to be able to move the
mouse between monitors unimpeded. And I want to be able to move
windows between monitors unimpeded.
I don't particularly want or need per-monitor launchers. I understand
some users do, and if it's there I'm not going to complain if it
doesn't get in my way. Causing the mouse to get stuck between
monitors all the time, however, does get in the way.
I just want some way to make sure my mouse never gets stuck at the
edge of a monitor. Even if it's a setting hidden away in CCSM, I'm
fine with that.
If there's a combination of numbers in the CCSM control panel that
ensures my mouse never gets stuck, please let me know. My experiments
with different settings didn't reveal anything.

Proposed solution:
Provide option 'Sticky edges' ON/OFF in Displays panel.
This option is only displayed if there are multiple displays.
OFF disables the edge hold effect on all edges, except the left edge of
displays where an auto-hiding Launcher is located.
Please see addendum to System Settings specification:

This addendum also provides a solution proposal for bug 950136:
'multimonitor, launcher: Provide an option to display either a single
launcher or a launcher on each display in a multi-monitor
environment': https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/950136
