I configured an external monitor to my Laptop. With the display configuration tool I placed the external monitor above my laptop screen and also moved the main top bar to the top screen.

Almost everything works as expected and I can move windows from one screen to another. However there are two (in my eyes) bugs:

Firstly I can't maximize a window in the lower screen by moving it to the edge, except if I use the part at the right where there is a step between the two resolutions (where I can't move the window up).
Of course double clicking the application bar works.

Secondly I constantly see the notification bar on the lower screen... Is this on purpose?

I'm using Fedora 15, gnome-shell 3.0.2, and standard Gallium 0.4 on NV84 for the nvidia card. The external monitor is connected through DVI.

The strange bar can be seen on the attached screenshot.
