1 manager for each root display.

1 container for each virtual root (e17 does not support virtual roots, 
so 1 container for each manager).

1 zone for each screen (xinerama with two physical screens will result 
in 2 zones for each container).

A standard setup will have 1 manager, 1 container and 1 zone.

current() will give you the active one, typically where the pointer is.
