With the help of Ander, this is the new round clone mode patchset.

It seems like there is now two different methods of getting a surface to be seen more than once: using this clone of an output, and the "views" stuff for putting a surface on more than one output.

I think it would be a lot nicer if these were merged, and the idea of a view being placed on multiple outputs is nicer. That provides a clean way of handling outputs of different aspect rations (by allowing the position/scale of the surfaces to vary) and more importantly gets rid of a lot of annoyances of a true clone in that the mouse cursor and even popup menus can selectively not appear on the clone output (for presentations this would help a lot).
