Error: unhandled exception: unsupported partial overlap

Yes, it looks like spicy can handle the display when spicec fails with
this error message.

I've found some additional information on how to replicate this problem.
It seems this is triggered if you have two host displays of different
resolutions mirrored, or partially overlapping.

$ xrandr -q
...
LVDS-0 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm 
x 193mm
   1920x1080      60.0*+   50.0  
...
DP-2 connected 1440x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 410mm x 
256mm
   1440x900       59.9*+   75.0     59.9  
   1280x1024      75.0     60.0  
   1024x768       75.0     70.1     60.0  
   800x600        75.0     72.2     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     59.9  

If the host displays do not overlap at all, spicec works.

There doesn't appear to be anything in the domain log file for these
display connection attempts.
