I made a small test program that shows the window position, it's correct when 
launched from the terminal + incorrect from gnome-shell.


Here is the output, as animated gifs, to show the incorrect focus position when 
launched from gnome-shell.


Launched from gnome-shell - incorrect position:

>Hello All,
>   I'm using gnome-shell on ubuntu 12.10 with two monitors, a laptop (primary 
>display, on the right) and a monitor on the left, with focus follows mouse.
>
>
>When I start applications, they appear on the monitor on the left, however 
>when it comes to focus, they only focus when I move the mouse to the place 
>where they would be if they were on the right.
>
>
>If I focus the window using the keyboard, then select 'move' the position is 
>correct.
>
>
>
>
>Another funny thing about focus on the monitor, is that often the position the 
>window recieves clicks seems to be vertically offset by about the height of 
>the titlebar (there is no titlebar on the monitor).
>
>
>I'd be willing to make a small pygtk programme showing window positions, and 
>do some screenshots to help debug this, if it helps.
