I reported Bug #733603 for the missing windows issues. I am not entirely
sure it's unrelated still, given that it only happens when detaching,
and not when manually switching between mirrored and unmirrored
displays. There are screenshots there which I can upload here if you
think it would be valuable.

In any case, I have a generated monitors.xml file, attached. This file
does not change while detached.

I went ahead and copied the monitors.xml file during several points
while reproducing the issue, to see if the file contents changed
(basically, they didn't).

$ diff -ddu monitors.xml.back-to-disabled monitors.xml.whiledetached 
$ 

There are changes between the original I made when I set up my display
configuration, and the new one I made when I manually reset the
configuration after reproducing the issue, but those differences are
those that come from me resetting it slightly differently:


$ diff -ddu monitors.xml.back-to-disabled monitors.xml.mirroringdisabled

I did try touching the file you indicated, but did not get any debug
logs. Any other steps I can take to generate the debugging?
