Yes, I think this has been suggested before. IIRC, the reason that it
was rejected from core was that it would confuse Xinerama users (who
need to know which of the hypothetically-fullscreen'd monitors is the
focused one). I don't think that this is a great reason - surely it
could be reasonably easily modified to be a null-op in the case where
multiple monitors are actually being used?

I'm not sure why; I must've made a mistake and thought that it didn't
compile with 0.8, but I just checked it again and it does seem to
work.
