Hi Gerg and Markus,

Hmm, right, nothing obvious at 
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkWindow.html for the non-full-screen 
case.

Nevertheless the options should have sane semantics.  We could:

  (1) Require full-screen=on in addition to monitor=<nr>.
      That would leave the door open to implement the full-screen=off
      case later if we figure some way to do that.
  (2) Rename the option to full-screen-on-monitor, to make clear this
      automatically enables fullscreen too.

sweeaun:  Alright, I would opt for option 2 in this case. Thanks for the 
feedback from you and Markus , I shall rework all the feedbacks for the v3.   

Regards,
SweeAun
