The behavior is the same on the Gnome session. But the general
behavior of the bug has gotten worse. Now if I so much as open the
Monitors application with a second monitor plugged in, the X window
becomes irresponsive. If I plug it after opening the application, it
behaves normally (but without image on the second monitor) until I
click on Detect monitors.

What happens then on all cases is: the mouse continues to work, moving
in what seems to be a rectangle containing the two monitors, but all
open windows blink on and off the main screen and no keyboard input is
recognized by any of the windows. The Gnome panel and Unity bar
disappear, and the only way to get it working again is to go to text
mode via Ctrl+Alt+F1 and rebooting.

As to the screenshot, should I take a picture of the frozen monitors,
or a short movie showing the windows blinking?
