Yes, please add fake monitor names to support this command on macOS too.

Now it's documented in the user manual.

But I'm not sure about the menu.  Currently the File menu contains:

  "New Frame on Display..."

but the File menu already is so long that I think a new menu item like

  "New Frame on Monitor..."

won't fit into it.

For the same reason I haven't added a menu item for ‘vc-root-version-diff’
to another overly long menu ‘vc-menu-map’.

BTW, a related question about the menu: shouldn't the menu item
"Search Files (Grep)..." run a more user-friendly command ‘rgrep’
instead of ‘grep’?
