in which case does one NOT want the bottoms to line up?

could we:

* stipulate that at least one edge is always aligned between monitors?
* ensure that this is the case when creating the xrandr configuration?

i'm trying to think of when one would (reasonably) require screens that are off 
by a couple of pixels, and i can't imagine such a use case. iow, instead of 
trying to make it possible to fix configuration stupidity, can we simply avoid 
such scenarios in the first place?

imho it would be a lot nicer if instead of "being able" to tweak things, we 
didn't have to. simpler, easier to learn UIs with the desired results in the 
first place.
