None. I just created a second empty panel and followed the steps as
described above. I did not go into the panel's options dialog.

Tested with xfce4-panel 4.8.6 on Fedora 15 and we are not patching the
package to do something special.

It's a little tricky though, the snap area could be a little bigger I
think.
