Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

There is a checkbox "Mirror Screens" in the Screen Resolution capplet,
which causes your desktop to appear the same way on two displays, rather
than expanding the desktop so you can have different windows on each
display.

The meaning of the phrase "Mirror Screens" is confusing and unclear (in
fact the entire dialog is confusing and unclear -- I just want to plug
in a TV/projector/whatever to see things in larger size -- but that
isn't the point of this bug)

The "Mirror Screens" checkbox would be more clear if it were replaced by
a pair of options "Extend my desktop across multiple displays" and
"Mirror my desktop onto multiple displays".

** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
