Public bug reported:

When i connect another display to my laptop (VGA port) without the mirror 
screens option and I close the laptop's lid, I expect Ubuntu to detect that 
there is an available monitor connected and use it as the main screen, but 
instead it cuts out the signal on the VGA port. I think the same problem exists 
with a HDMI port.
I am looking forward for this fix.

Note: This happens even if i choose to turn off the laptop screen and
close the lid. Also my power options are set to do nothing when the lid
is closed.
