Just saw this on one of the tech blogs:

<http://blog.boastr.net/?page_id=79>

I've always found it a bit of a pain when an app on one monitor has its menu
bar on the other. This is in early development I think, and didn't work on my
Leopard (and other comments suggest it's Snow Leopard only). Good idea
though!

Cheers ... Mark

I would so kill for having this kind of functionality baked into the
OS itself because the multi monitor experience on a Mac isn't
brilliant. As wasteful of space as the in-window menus of Windows is
it does at least offer an advantage in multi monitor setups.

Optionally being able to duplicate the dock across monitors would be
helpful too.

Why stop there? Wouldn't it be even handier to have the application
windows available on both screens as well? No need to mouse from one
screen to another just to get to a pesky window that you left on the
wrong one. They could call it 'mirroring' or something.
