Use cases that could be relevant:

- A special purpose application that needs to control on which outputs its
windows go (think trading desk, 3 monitors...). Sounds like 'special
compositor' to me

- Click on a link in application A to open a document in another application -
may want to keep the new window on the same monitor ?

- Implement a 'open window on other monitor' function inside an app (I think
we're just debating adding 'move to other monitor' in the shell window menu
elsewhere).
