seems to describe what you are actually after, but I'm not sure I understand what you are after, other than avoiding the screen locking problem that I'm not finding here. I know I'm using one Xorg "screen", and don't think I understand what problem multiple Xorg "screens" would solve for you. --
Each screen has its own coordinate system, so it avoids all problems stemming from "0:0 is an upper left corner always". The tradeoff is that you cant move windows between screens.
