Bug description:
  For GNOME 3.10, all the display configuration/xrandr code has been
  moved into Mutter as dbus interface. The Main reason for this move was
  to abstract away the display server (x11/wayland).

  This affects gnome-desktop3 and gnome-settings-daemon. In particular
  the changes in gnome-desktop would create a gigantic mess if we tried
  to revert these changes for Unity only. As such it seems the cleanest
  solution would be to copy the display config interface from Mutter
  into Unity. The code itself is fairly self contained, so apart from
  the resulting duplication of code, it shouldnt really be much of an
  issue.
