Thank you all for your replies! A 15" laptop it is then with a larger
external monitor. Now I'm only keeping my fingers crossed for dt to
support both monitors (UI on one, photo on other) one day. But no big
deal, I just get a larger monitor for the additionally required screen
estate :)

Aha, it looks like I'm not the only one to have this exact idea.
Also looks like:

Yes, I can drag it to one, but then it stays on that monitor. What I'd
love to do is to have the lightable on the left monitor and the
darkroom on the right.
Let me make it more explicit:
# Situation
Often I observed that there is a trade-off between space eaten by
toolbars (especially in darkroom) and convenience.
# Idea
IMHO dual screen allows to get the best of both worlds:
* one monitor shows the lighttable /and all toolbars/ at all times
* the other monitor shows the /only/ photo being edited when in darkroom
mode, fullscreen, no toolbar, no border
# Benefit
Dedicating the first monitor to all non-photo stuff makes available the
*full resolution* of the second monitor to be used for the photo. The
user would have to move the pointer often between the two screens, but
experience working with two screens for other stuff has already proven
IMHO that it's not a problem.
# PoC implementation
A proof-of-concept might even be as easy to implement as " have the
darkroom image widget in its own top-level window, instead of the center
of the darktable window".
The user can then just drag this window to their preferred monitor and
voilà.
What do you think?
