	How is "gnome-desktop-environment" defined?

	This behaviour seems natural and appropriate.  On Macs, the
"Finder" bar does not show up on but one display.  One Win32, the "Start"
bar shows up only on the primary monitor.

	According to this report, Gnome supports multi-head monitors fine.
XFree86 may not (yet), but that has nothing to do with us...
