well, this one does not work, but I found this command working like a charm:
xrandr --output eDP1 --panning 3840x2160
xrandr --output DP1-9 --preferred --pos 0x0 --crtc 1 --output DP1-8
--preferred --pos 1920x0 --crtc 2

than I have one big screen as desired and window manager is completely happy
with it, i.e., window maximizing really maximizes the window to 3840x2160. So
really happy with it.

Maybe, one day someone proposes a window manager that rearrange windows on
resolution change ;)
