The ability to use Firefox on a multi-screen configuration would be useful. However, it is not possible at this time (at least with a single profile). This is also the case for multiple X servers, not just screens. Ideally, Firefox should be able to be run anywhere, at any time. I would imagine that it should be able to avoid clobbering its data files if multiple instances of the browser would be required to address this issue, but I would also think that it would be possible to have a single Firefox instance "connected" to multiple X11 DISPLAYs (e.g., :0.0, :0.1, or even :0.0 and :1.0) for the same user. Evince (in Feisty) appears to have this feature, and there are other programs that are multi-screen friendly. Is it possible to make Firefox one of them? Thanks!
