Suggestion regarding HoI4 (and maybe regarding every other Paradox game)

None of these solutions are easy to implement. And they have their own share of pros and cons. But before you pick either solution; you have to ask; is it even really necessary to bother?.

The second is the way to go, but its not easy as you say and would require engine restructuring. Some day I'd like to add support because just being able to have one camera set up on each screen. One watching Normandie, the other watching the pacific would be super convenient.

I would be confused with such two cameras but i can see the idea in having one showing the map while another shows the production etc. Or one showing the map zoomed out on a whole theater and the other being zoomed in to watch the combat in a small area.

EDIT: The optimal thing for me imho. Would be to have the normal game screen on my main monitor and when opening the Production/Tech/Politics tab it would open on the other screen.

Supreme Commander effectively has this split screen system and it works very well there

how can anyone think this is a bad idea? Why do we even use multiple monitors in the first place?

watching movies or playing two games at the same time
