This issue was discussed 2 years ago. Started with

and then continued in April from

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2007-April/022997.html

onwards. The agreement seems to be that it should be configurable by some agent in the user session. So, new protocol must defined.

Various issues must be considered, including:

* isolated CRTCs - not sharing any border with any other one

* overlapping CRTCs

* interaction with panning

* interaction with CRTC transforms

* interaction with multi pointer

All things considered, seems like real fun :-)
