Q: Dual Monitor Utility

I am using dual monitors on my Mac computer and I am struggling to find a way to make OSX act in a manner that works for me.

 

What I would really like is to have a 'second dock' on my second monitor and when I minimize a window on that second monitor it minimizes to that dock. Likewise when I minimize a window on my main monitor it minimizes to the main dock. Each dock is only responsible for the windows on its respective monitor.

 

In addition I'd love a way to have each window (instance) of an application appear as a separate icon on the dock when the window is open. I often have 3 or 4 windows of Safari open for example and I'd like to be able to switch between them using the dock.

 

I am looking for suggestions for 3rd party software or ideas that will get me closer to some of my goals. Basically, I'd like what UltraMon is on Windows for the Mac.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)
