- I fixed the issue with configurations not being read from the gnome-settings-daemon monitors.xml config file, I',m not entirely sure what wrote this file, but Laney suggested it was maybe copied across by one of the indicators?
- I couldn't reproduce the pointer barrier issue here on my dual monitor setup. I actually don't believe there is any code dealing with pointer barriers involved here either.
- Right, Unity no longer requires changes with this solution. marked invalid.
- Our build of g-c-c 3.10 has the bluetooth changes reverted, so no need for BlueZ 5 this cycle (will definitely need that for next cycle however).
- I will add a list of the changed API tomorrow, however I don't believe gnome-screensaver is affected by this and certainly built fine when I tested it. Most of the API changes are pretty internal (i.e. limited to g-s-d and g-c-c). The api's that most apps are using (background, thumbnailer, etc) are unaffected.

As a side note, I have spoken with upstream about splitting out all app dependencies from gnome-desktop, at which point it would become feasible to fork gnome-desktop, however this won't happen until atleast 3.14 anyway.
