Public bug reported:

Using Ubuntu 13.04 x64 fresh install on Thinkpad E420s.

If I define a hot corner (such as window spread on top-left and top-
right) using either Unity Tweak Tool or CCSM, they work fine while my
laptop is not connected to an external monitor. The monitor is set to be
to the left of my laptop in the Display settings

When I connect via VGA, the top-left hot corner no longer works (on
either display).  The top-right one continues to work.

On the other hand, if I move the external monitor to the right side of
the laptop, the top-left continues to not work on either display, but
the top-right works on the external display. Perhaps this is the
intended behavior, but it seems more intuitive if you can  use the hot
corners on each display.

On gnome-shell, I would intentionally misalign the external monitor and
the laptop display so I could use the top-left hot corner on the laptop
screen. This is a very useful behavior.

As a workaround, I will just use the top-right corner, but I would
prefer if the top-left worked as expected.
