Since the 12th of March I notice the following behaviour for my dual monitor
set-up

1. In Activities the column "screen" layout only shows a single display. It
previously showed two displays.
2. If I swap workspace using ctrl-alt- arrowkey the lefthand screen switches
but the right hand display remains the same.
3. The options when right clicking the title bar of a window are different
between windows on the left display and the right display. The left includes
new options like "move to workspace down"
I believe these are by design:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609258
If I understand correctly this bugzilla thread describes implementing two distinct multi-monitor configurations

1. Two (or more) monitors form a single larger display. When switching workspaces they switch as a single whole.
This is the previous action (prior to 12th March or so)

2. Two monitors operate independently Only the primary display changes when switching. The secondary (and I guess further monitors) is (are) static.
This is the new action.

So how do I configure for configuration 1 now? I couldn't see how this is selectable.
