When you say desktop bars do you mean the launcher?  If you put the
launcher on the right hand screen can you put files on the desktop on
the left hand screen?

If you open, two firefox windows, one on the screen with the launcher
and one on another screen, give focus to the one without the launcher
and then click on the FF launcher, which window does the focus go to,
if either?  In fact what should happen in this case is that it should
open the Spread (is that the right word) to allow you select which FF
window you want.
