Though since I don't have mac (even VM), it was aimed to bring just backward compatibility with the migration, while actual devices/displays enumeration, flags, etc -- are kept for someone having experience with Cocoa, with an ability to check results live on multi-display setup. 

Then just leave the Mac driver patch out of the series.  The null driver in user32 should probably contain the old implementation to prevent regressions for drivers which don't implement the entry point.  If your patches are accepted, I'll implement it for the Mac driver.

Right, but it doesn't work that way in the Mac driver.  See my original patch <https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/blob/master/patches/gdi32-MultiMonitor/0004-winemac-Make-GetMonitorInfo-give-a-different-device-.patch>.

That's what I thought about my original patches.  We'll have to see if Alexandre agrees. :)

No.  I meant I have doubts that Alexandre's preferred approach will be feasible on the Mac.  I was referring to my replies to Alexandre's email that I linked to:
