Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/900

In a multi-system setup, which is based on the physical position of the clients, the positioning of the systems in the "Screens and left" screen helps. However, systems whose clients are unreachable prevent reaching systems that are "behind" the switched off client.

My scenario:

(1) Macbook as server
(2) iMac as client
(3)Windows 10 Bootcamp (on iMac) as client

If the client (2) is not reachable, but only the client (3), a change from system (1) is not possible. In connection with Issue #899 it can be detected that a system is out of reach. However, since the system is also physically positioned to the left of the server, it is desired that the natural mouse movement is supported and client (2) is skipped and client (3) is reached.

Or have I missed a setting?
