 How do you propose we do that when few, if any, of the kwin developers use 
 xinerama?

This belongs to a kwin list really, but they should have at least a
remote idea what they changed that completely broke xinerama - I'm not
only talking about windows not being on the screen where I want them.
I'm talking about menus always popping up on the first screen, no matter
where the application window is and about KWin not even knowing there
are more than 1 screens attached.
