That sounds very similar to what double-headed Macs do: they just treat the
total are of both screens as a single "Gray Area". I don't know how they
handle resolution changes. That's the sort of model I'd like to see on the
Amiga.

For scaling, you'd have to have a preferences-set mouse speed for each screen.
