I'm not in front of multiple monitors now.  Perhaps
I can check later, when I am.

In any case, all we have, AFAIK, is
`display-monitor-attributes-list'.  It decides what
it returns.  Attribute `frames' is described thus:

"frames -- List of frames dominated by the physical monitor"

For the same frame to be "dominated" by more than
one monitor I would wonder what good the word
"dominated" could possibly do here.  It suggests
that one of the monitors dominates a given frame.

Anyway, I'll try to remember to check, when I'm
in the presence of > 1 monitor, unless someone
beats me to it.
