The X server doesn't define where the panel goes, the panel
application/window manager does. Right now, the panel often ends up on
Xinerama screen 0, which is a fairly random plan and under RandR 1.2,
this screen changes depending on which outputs are enabled.

We could add stuff to RandR to let you specify the Xinerama order, or we
could change the toolkit to use RandR and specify panel position by
output name. The former would kludge around the limitations in Xinerama
while the latter would provide a stable panel location independent of
any reconfiguration.
