Also, when you have extended your desktop but switch back to a single monitor
again, although browser windows return to the primary monitor, dialogs (e.g.
What do you want to do with this file? type) continue to open off the screen ie
in position of previous monitor.

I have the duplicate bug number memorized. It had a summary you never would have
found, though. I've just updated it.

Problem is, no one with a multiple monitor system has stepped up to work on this
bug. Another problem is, it seems to be difficult to reproduce: see bug 98830
comment 19 - 21.

Oh and the bug in comment 4, that would be a different bug. And an icky one. If
you wouldn't mind, please file a new bug with just that problem and detailed
instructions and ... I have no idea who to assign it to. Me, I guess. But all
these multiple-monitor bugs are going unserviced until mozilla buys me another
video card and monitor. Make it something in a high-end Radeon.
