Title:
  Impossible to discern which is the primary monitor in dock positioning

Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-control-center source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  In gnome the primary monitor is quite important as it's the one where
  the overview will be shown.

  So when selecting where to put the dock in appearance settings, this
  should be mentioned in order to make sure where it will be showing,
  and this is more important when there are multiple monitors with the
  same name.

  
  [ Impact ]

  It may be impossible to understand what monitor we refer to in
  ubuntu's appearance settings pane

  
  [ Test case ]

  Run:
    env NO_AT_BRIDGE=1 HOME=/tmp/TEST_HOME \
        XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/.tmp-runtime-dir \
        XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland \
        MUTTER_DEBUG_NUM_DUMMY_MONITORS=3 \
        dbus-run-session gnome-shell --nested --wayland

  In that nested view with three fake monitors, run gnome-control-center
  and go in the "Appearance" view.

  In the combo-box it's impossible to understand to what monitor we're
  applying the dock "show in" setting, nor what it is currently the
  primary monitor

  - The monitors should be marked by numbers and while this view is
  showing the shell should mark each monitor the same way

  [ Regression potential ]

  Strings might be shown not properly in RTL languages
