	I believe that mwm's -multiscreen is broken.

I agree.  TWM does this, and it seems to be the best solution.

From clients/twm/menus.c ...

    /*
     * Build a display string using the current screen number, so that
     * X programs which get fired up from a menu come up on the screen
     * that they were invoked from, unless specifically overridden on
     * their command line.
