Moving a window to the other vertical monitor in XFCE 4

# Move the current window to the other vertical monitor. Adapted from the
# scripts for horizontal monitors at makandracards.com
#
# Only works on a 2x1 vertical monitor setup.
# Also works only on one X screen (which is the most common case).

# Unfortunately, both "xdotool getwindowgeometry --shell $window_id" and
# checking "-geometry" of "xwininfo -id $window_id" are not sufficient, as
# the first command does not respect panel/decoration offsets and the second
# will sometimes give a "-0-0" geometry. This is why we resort to "xwininfo".
