I don't know anything about the "pain and suffering" with the Dell, so
this should not be construed as a suggestion to reconsider.  But X is
able to handle multi-headed setups, so I would guess that the
shortcoming here is not of X, but of the window manager, which doesn't
know how to move whole desktops across displays.
