I can think of a couple of issues with this approach. First, there are various reasons for leaving a monitor off a system. For example, if a RasPi is being used as a server, running it "headless" might be a normal strategy, having nothing to do with blindness. Contrariwise, there are various reasons a blind user might want to keep an active monitor. They might have a sighted associate with whom they occasionally collaborate. Alternatively, they might want to run a touch screen (e.g., to type on). The fundamental problem is that keying off the presence of a monitor complects two separate and otherwise independent phenomena. So, it's just asking for conflicts. -r
