Instead of adding more hooks, have you thought if clients who wants to overwrite monitor positioning could disable spice-gtk auto-align code at all, and instead handle the align configuration themselves? Wouldn't that be more flexible since the spice-gtk code is not satisfying and hard to generalize correctly?
