Errrheemmm ...  hehe .... uummmm....

It writes "Unmanaged" to [Windows] in kdeglobals from where it is at least not read by KWin (which would not place unmanaged windows anyway) KWin reads XineramaPlacementScreen and ("somehow") uses it to place *managed* windows. I however don't know where a GUI config for this would reside and there's no such entry in my entire ~/.kde/share/config dir - which contains veeeery old files...

So basically i guess this option is dead (unless it's read somewhere else and exported to the root window - but i don't know. My root window looks unspectacular in this regard)

On general topic, i'm pretty much with Sebastian - "Make one HUGE screen" ./. "Make many Screens" should be entirely sufficient*, having different placement, maximization and resistance behavior sounds weird and otherwise the kcm looks like it crosses krandr.

Cheers,
Thomas

*not sure whether this would lower code complexity, though...
