Is there currently a workaround?
A way to position the location manually?

It took me a while to figure out why I didn't see any notifications by default. 
My right monitor is smaller and has a lesser resolution, so the top-right of 
the combined viewport isn't visible. Hence, I saw no notifications at all. 

Is there some place to configure the location? I would rather have them
start at the bottom-left of the viewport.

PS. A proper fix would be to:
 - either show notifications on both screens (ignoring the combined viewport)
 - show on the primary screen (hence the word 'primary')
 - have a way to configure where to show the notification (perhaps some people 
prefer it to be in the center or the left of the screen?). The current choice 
(top right) assumes a lot of things about how a desktop is setup. My least 
used-place on the screen is the bottom-left.  But that's just MY setup. Perhaps 
a place in gconf where the power users can configure this stuff?

Bug description:
Binary package hint: notify-osd

I use nvidia TwinView (one X desktop across two monitors). notification-daemon 
was apparently sensitive to this (presumably through Xinerama info?) and would 
popup on my primary screen.

notify-osd seems to be unaware of this, and appears in the top right of the 
overall viewport, which is on my secondary screen, and less visible, so less 
useful as a notifier.
