Well 1/2 is a friendly rational....   ;)

But seriously though, independent screens is a great addition to the line
up, imo. It'll be even better when someday we also offer the 'some bound
to screens, some free semantics', too. I'd get frustrated if,for example,
I couldn't make pdfs visible on whatever screen I want without moving them,
but can understand wanting some workspaces banned from some screens,
e.g.  when monitors are very different resolutions or aspect ratios. Or
just cause someone likes it that way. Plenty of people have asked for
something like this; it's good to have something on offer.
