Me neither. Though I can imagine—vaguely—a circumstance where I might
want to. But then I'd probably also want to tweak it so that I would
know which monitor the stack was visible on, or whether the stack was
sufficiently visible (not a single corner pixel). So I'd vote "no" but
the handler might be good inclusion for a "snippets" site.
