Title:
  Configuration of screens positions and geometry

Status in Mir:
  New
Status in Qt integration with the Mir display server:
  New
Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  New
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Under unity7/xorg it's possible to configure the position of the screens and their geometry, that includes
  - resolution of each screen
  - rotation possible
  - relative position (external on top of laptop, or on the right)
  - definition of a "primary" monitor (the one containing the launcher if you decide to have that UI element only on one screen)
  - etc

  Under unity7 the configuration is applied on login by unity-settings-
  daemon using xrandr. In the new world unity8 should probably be the
  one setting up the configuration at start
