I used to have this arrangement on my Windows box, until I started vnc'ing 
from home every so often to get something done, only to discover the app that 
I needed was on the other monitor. only way to access it was to shift 
everything to the primary monitor (via control panel). With the task bar on 
only one monitor, you can see what's up and say "Move to other monitor". 
Fixed.

May not apply in your case, of course, but something to be aware of.
