Multi-headed gecko apps [was: Re: Proposing GtkUnique 1.0 as a blessed external dependency]

Hi,

I'd just like to point out that gecko is _not_ multi-head safe. So any
single-instance application that uses gecko will need one instance _per
screen_. And if it uses a (gecko) profile, it'll be basically impossible
to use it on more than one screen at a time since you cannot share the
profile among several running geckos. (There was some work done to allow
this, but afaik it's incomplete and not enabled in standard builds.)

Regards,
