I've found using Metacity (vs Compiz) as my system's window decorator
allows me better control of programs shown on any additional screens,
whilst disabling most of my Composite/3D Acceleration. (Looking into the
composite/3d issue further may result on a solution, I'm just not
willing to bother)

After applying the patch, play around with different managers and see if
you can get the desired results.  Like I said, Metacity actually
decorated windows I spawn on any display/screen which allows me to
interact with said windows once they have been created.

Additionally, I have since migrated away from Ubuntu to stock Debian.  I
am also looking into Ubuntu variants, such as Lubuntu and Xubuntu to see
what dual-head support they may provide.

Again, with all the respect in the word to the developers of this and
every other program available to me today, I don't understand how
Nautilus is the default file manager for Ubuntu with such problems.
