As a couple of small corrections to this, it's not a metaphor, and it's
not what OS X does.
The Design team has just discussed this and we agree it's confusing. The
two-monitors icon sucked, but our first try at a replacement wasn't so
hot. :-) We will have another go, considering the cross and slash
possibilities proposed here, and we'll seek a UI freeze exception for
9.04 for a replacement icon. Thanks for raising the issue.
Cheers
