(Get the code!)
Imagine this:
I have a laptop and a larger second monitor which I mainly work on when at my desk.
The laptop screen is still useful for IM windows etc, but it is not my primary screen.
Now, for any given desk the secondary laptop has a preferred position on either side of the main screen.
Unfortunately, Unity only works when the laptop is on the right side, because if it is on the left side the launcher bar cuts the desktop in half and is really hard to hit because the mouse just moves onto the secondary screen.
So, Mark, you are saying that your design goal is to have no simple way to put the secondary screen on the left.
Does the canonical office have this desk layout policy?
Sure, I can install my own launcher alternatives, but then why do I bother with Ubuntu, might as well go back to Debian...
Did you know that even OS X allows you to move the Dock?
I guess there is always Fedora and Kubuntu. However, I quite liked Ubuntu pre-unity, so here is my feedback, so that hopefully I can keep liking it.
