We definitely want to discuss the dual-seat possibilities in the context of 5.0. I agree that dual-head/one FB (single seat) can be handled in the current 4.x environment. Several 3rd party drivers already handle this in one way or another. I did some configuration and infrastructure related work on this for a project that got cut. One of the things this handled was the configuration for mutiple monitor viewports being attached to a single screen. Now that 4.3.0 is out, I'd like to go back and finish that off, and modify one of the existing dual CRTC drivers to make use of it.
