** Description changed:

- Xmir crashes when a client loses its connection to Xmir, either through
- XCloseDisplay, or by normal program termination. This affects xprop and
- GTK applications (they temporarily open a connection to the X server to
- obtain the value of the AT_SPI_BUS property on the root window).
+ Xmir reconnects to Mir when the final client drops its connection to
+ Xmir, either through XCloseDisplay, or by normal program termination.
+ This affects xprop and GTK applications (they temporarily open a
+ connection to the X server to obtain the value of the AT_SPI_BUS
+ property on the root window).
  
  This is what is printed in application's upstart log:
  
  (EE)
  Fatal server error:
  (EE) Failed to connect to Mir: Failed to process connect response: /build/mir-3eDTxk/mir-0.14.0+15.10.20150723.1/src/client/probing_client_platform_factory.cpp(37): Throw in function virtual std::shared_ptr<mir::client::ClientPlatform> mir::client::ProbingClientPlatformFactory::create_client_platform(mir::client::ClientContext*)
