Better Handling of Hotkeys and Multiple Menus
Problem
I have two monitors. On each monitor, I have a panel. Mainly for aesthetic reasons (but also in case my main monitor was acting up and I couldn't access the Whisker menu on my main monitor), I would like to have a Whisker Menu on both monitors. However, if I have a Whisker menu on my secondary monitor and run xfce4-popup-whiskermenu (typically via the shortcut key I have mapped to open the Whisker menu), it opens the menu on the secondary monitor instead of the primary one I work on most often.
Current Workaround
At the moment, I have just put a standard application menu on my secondary panel.
Proposed Solution
I was thinking that the xfce4-popup-whiskermenu command could have a parameter for which menu. This could be with a number assigned to each menu (or UUID), which could be got by adding a feature to the command to list available menus or being able to get (and maybe set) a unique identifier in the individual Whisker Menu's configuration dialog.
