Yea I'm considering reverting this. dwm actually has got
Xinerama support again, using the first screen info for
w{x,y.w.h} now -- if it is enabled at compile time. So I
consider the same for dmenu as well when determing the right
position.

Thus, one can use the remaining space (outside w{x,y,w,h}) for
floating stuff.

Kind regards,
