Enabling on only one monitor #160

How can I enable this on only one monitor in a multi monitor setup?

I tried XSECURELOCK_SINGLE_AUTH_WINDOW=1, but if I mouse over the other monitor it still displays the login prompt. I would like to choose one of my monitors and have that be the only one the prompt displays on.

Please let me know if this is possible with existing configuration!

I have same thing, if I move the mouse to 2nd or 3rd screen it will show login prompt. Maybe we should have an option to disable mouse? Something like XSECURELOCK_DISABLE_MOUSE=1 Thanks.

fwiw now that I'm using this in practice, it's a very minor inconvenience. It would be nice, but it's not a huge deal. Disabling the mouse would probably not be a good option, as jiggling the mouse is a common way to wake the screen.
