In fact, the second monitor is blanked and the dialog is shown on the first.
However when both monitors display the same screen (or when one displays a
subset of the other), you end with the blanked screen above the usual
screen. In my case the first screen is almost two times bigger so I see
about half of the dialog. :)
gnome-screensaver needs to detect this by checking framebuffer coordinates
of what's displayed on each monitor. It looks like there's a patch in the
gnome bugtracker, I tested it and it works (at least for my case).
Cheers,
