Well I was thinking about this, that's why I asked the question. The 
front end change should be pretty simple. I've added:

- (int) window: (NSRect)frame : (NSBackingStoreType)type : (unsigned 
int)style : (int)screen;

to GSDisplayServer to tell the server which screen to put the window on 
( not in CVS yet). There shouldn't need to be any other interface 
changes, although I have to do some serious work in the backend 
(particularly getting cursors to work on screens with different depths).
