Not a bug or a feature request. Just some thoughts on the OSD behavior on dual
screen setup.

So we have sound volume, screen brightness OSD. When you have dual screen
setup, the OSD only shows in the desktop that has window focus.

For screen brightness OSD, it usually only works for the laptop screen. When
you adjust it, you must be looking at the laptop screen, not the external
screen. So showing screen brightness OSD in focused desktop isn't always ideal.
If it is too hard to know which screen is laptop screen, duplicate the OSD on
every screen is also fine.

Then for the sound valume OSD, it is basically independent to screen. Maybe I
have my window focus in a screen. But I am watching YouTube video in the other
screen. Maybe the sound is from the laptop speaker or the external speakers
behind the external display. Maybe in this case, showing the sound volume OSD
in all screen is better.
