That's neat, but I don't need to merge the displays.  In fact I
have the opposite problem in that several boxes have several heads
used independently by manually parking different application windows
on them and it is hard to track which keyboard/mouse goes with each
and which way to move the mouse for each screen.  I was hoping
for something like a vnc tool that could do a thumbnail of each
screen and grab it on a different box on demand - with the added
degree of difficulty of wanting to grab one display from a windows
box that treats it as one big screen.
