           Summary: Disabling/removing monitors from multihead setup
                    strands windows in old position, out of reach
           Product: kwin
           Version: 4.3.2
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: multihead
        AssignedTo: kwin@kde.org
        ReportedBy: davidomundo@gmail.com


Version:           4.3.2 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

I often use multihead to connect my laptop to an external monitor. When I
disconnect or disable the external monitor, windows that were in the external
monitor do not come to the laptop monitor, and are unreachable by mouse. The
only way I can retrieve those stranded windows is to select "Move" from the
task panel's context menu.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect an external monitor, set up multihead (not mirror), and drag windows
into the external monitor.
2. Go to display settings and disable the external monitor

Actual Results:  
Windows that were in the external monitor are out of sight, out of reach.

Expected Results:  
Windows that were in the external monitor should be moved into current display
space.

Additionally, large windows should be shrunk to fit the new display space.

This is applicable when:
1. resolution changes to a lower resolution
2. monitor changes to a smaller monitor (eg. large external -> small laptop
screen)
3. multihead display changes to a single monitor display
