Public bug reported:

Reporting against gnome-desktop since I do not know better. Please
assign to appropriate package. Thanks!

Using external monitors with the gnome desktop behaves unexpected in a few 
ways. One is, that the alignment of screens limits, where icons can be placed 
on that screens:
My external monitor is higher than the internal screen of my laptop. I have 
aligned the screens at the bottom. This makes the bottom part of the (external, 
higher) screen unusable for placing icons.

This is probably best seen on the attached screenshot.
Thanks for caring!
