What's wrong with multi monitor?
Gnome has been my example as the best multimonitor experience. It's more reliable than even my work Mac when working with mixed DPI and multiple displays.
I have to use "fullscreen avoider" and "multi-monitor panel" extensions.
The first moves the top panel to the second monitor if there's a fullscreen window on the first.
The second creates another top panel on all the others monitor.
Since them are in effect different panels, others extensions doesn't show up on secondary monitor's top panel (like for example audio mixer). So by using "fullscreen avoider" I have those extensions on the secondary monitor while I'm gaming or watching a video.
