Public bug reported:
I have two monitors (in the logs: DP-2, DP-4) and one beamer (HDMI-0)
connected to this computer via a GTX 970.
Since this computer is used as a presentation device, I want to
configure the beamer output to mirror one of the two monitors, so that
the presenter can see what's being projected and keep a spare screen for
notes or other stuff.
(As an unrelated note, the @$%#~£ builtin applet in System Settings
*obviously* does not make this setup possible out of the box, but only
let me mirror *all monitors* or arrange them side by side. One needs to
resort to xrandr / nvidia-settings / editing ~/.config/monitors.xml to
make this work; preferably the last one, as it's the only way to make
these settings permanent.)
In the end, this is the setup I want:

DP-4 on the left, DP-2 on the right, HDMI-1 mirroring DP-2.
When I configure the system this way, windows don't properly enter fullscreen
any more.
The launcher bar and the menu bar are still visible, even visually
covering parts of the window. The window just becomes frameless and
somehow maximized.
Cf. the attachment, in which this very Firefox window is not-so-
fullscreen. This is reproducible with any standard Ubuntu app: Firefox,
a terminal, LibreOffice, ...
For extra levels of brokeness:
1) when using Firefox, the launcher and the menu bar do not actually
react to any mouse event. Clicks on top of them get delivered to the
underlying window.
2) any "popup" opened by the fullscreen window actually makes the
launcher and the menu bar disappear. This includes tooltips, contextual
menus, the "burger menu" in Firefox and so on.
Fullscreen works properly only when either *all* the monitors are mirroring
each other, or they're not overlapping (all side by side or similar), i.e. the
only configurations that are available from the @$%#~£ builtin applet).
