Another option would be for the screenrect function to accept a
parameter that specifies which monitor we have in mind. This would
also maintain the compatibility with existing codes. However, having
all returned in a single call, as suggested by Ben, has a nice bonus
that by checking the number of lines we immediately know the number
of monitors.
I read somewhere in MC docs that screenrect always returns only the
main screen on Mac. There was no mention about getting that for other
monitors.
