One reason I loathe DP is how it's handling monitor presence in system when you power of monitor or switch input to 2nd port, it's equivalent of unhooking monitor from pc which screws up desktop layout in most cases. with one monitor it's not a problem but in multimonitor setup windows and task bars start jumping all over the place...

That's not really an issue with DP itself, but with the operating system handling unplugging, if you allow me to be pedantic.

How would you want that to be handled? The monitor is removed from the system. Do you want a phantom monitor to remain in place, with applications and desktop, no longer accessible?
