This problem is still a problem as of today with Feisty Fawn.  Is there
any progress on this bug?  It is beginning to become a problem—I have
two notification areas on each of my workspaces (:0.0 and :0.1, same
configuration as above with no Xinerama, see attached X.org
configuration), but the applications that are started on the secondary
screen (display 0, screen 1, :0.1) do not register with either the
notification area on the main display (:0.0) or the secondary display
(:0.1), going away into the ether it would appear.

In this way, I have to resort to the command line to kill applicaitons
(such as the OpenOffice.org quickstarter) which should be able to attach
to the Notification Area, but don't on a dual-head setup on the
secondary monitor.
