Andrea is right. The option exists already in oneiric's Gnome 3 display
settings panel. It's just not obvious to all users because the bar is
small. But you can drag it between monitors.
And certainly Andrea is right that at least up to Unity 4.16, this

Would someone care to explain how to patch it locally as Kim Nguyễn
writes. I would like to use 11.10, but with the dash on my second left
not primary monitor it is a pain to work with.

To patch it locally requires knowledge of how to build the code and
how to use diff patches. If you're not sure how to do it, then sorry to
say you'll need to wait until someone makes the change available in a
PPA.
I'll do it myself after 11.10 is released, if no one else has by then...

Re: The permanent workaround...
1. It is only expected to work on Ubuntu 11.04 natty. Andrea's comments suggest
the same workaround won't work on Ubuntu 11.10 oneiric.
2. You need to make sure the change to monitors.xml is still there. Sometimes
it gets overwritten when you log out and in again.
I *am* using 11.04, I modified ~/.config/monitors.xml back in May, but
it didn't work once *since* then.

I was really hoping Andrea just made a mistake and was meaning to say
that the launcher was going to be displayed on the monitor on the right.
Based on Kim's response it appears not to be the case and i'm quite
surprised to hear this. It might be the implemented behaviour now, it's
definitely not
@Andrea: ok.
Although I understand this can be a sane default, just ignoring X primary
monitor seems too much. There are several reasonable configurations where the
primary should get the panel, no matter where it is. E.g configuration used

This bug also affects me, I also believe that the same problem of not
having the primary monitor on the left causes a problem with the
workspace switcher placement. See attached screenshot.

as primary.

Thanks Andrea, that sounds like good news. And an obvious feature that
was missing from Monitor Preferences in natty.
