Call for testing future awesome 1.3: Xinerama new handling



Hello here,

The last few days I've been working on a complete rewrite of the
Xinerama handling of awesome.
Xinerama screens are now handled like Zaphod screens (multi-head with
multiple physical screen and displays). That allows changing tags views
on each screen without changing the whole display.
In one word: each screen is independant, Xinerama is now more a "big
display". I always wanted that in a window manager, and I think Xmonad
also is going this way.

This can introduce a number of regression in Xinerama mode, but also in
Zaphod mode and maybe in one screen mode.

Consequently I ask that if you're using 1.2 to test the current git
master branch. There won't be any big feature adittion for 1.3 right now,
only bug fixes.

Cheers,
