Sorry for the tardy response -- dealing with ssh-askpass bugs has been bobbing just below the point where I get round to it on my TODO list for far too long. Anyway, since I'm now preparing a release, I looked at this, and it occurs to me that it might be more useful to be able to specify the position on the screen as e.g. a percentage of the width/height. Currently it goes for the middle of the X axis, and one third from the top on the Y. We could therefore have resources xPercent and yPercent that default to 50 and 33 respectively to attain the same effect (bar rounding) and for your 2 screen setup you could set yPercent to 25, say, to get it in the middle of one screen. Would that work for you? That strikes me as better than using an absolute position, but perhaps there is something I'm not considering.
