Thanks for testing. I suppose that's the expected behavior.

This sounds wrong. I suppose the frame should move to the right edge
of the rightmost monitor.

Can you try fixing that in some consistent manner? You can find the
corresponding code in x_calc_absolute_position in xterm.c. BTW, does
it work right when you use the "(- POS)" specification?

Did you try specifying the "top" parameter in that configuration?

Probably a problem with calculating the decorations. Does
(frame-geometry) return "reasonable" values for your frame?
