I don't know of any applications which require multiple screens.

I work at an HP series 300 workstation configured with three screens
(three crts, one keyboard, one mouse); I really like the extra screen
space.  The configuration is simple to control (/usr/lib/X11/X0screens),
and it works quite well.  I also run a configuration of two displays
running from a single workstation.  One display having two crts and the
other having only one crt (both have their own keyboard and mouse).  I
find this configuration indispensible for testing.
