Hmm, one thing I just remembered: Until I switched the heads minicli
always popped up at the right border of the left (first) head. Now it
pops up at the left border of the right (first) head. 

So maybe kwin just decides to put minicli at the center of the whole
desktop (i.e. both heads) instead of the center of the currently focused
head.

I get the feeling this is a bug in kwin.
