Public bug reported:
I just accidentally hit Meta-P and was extremely confused by the result.
As I only tapped it, I didn't see the on-screen menu, and my displays
were suddenly configured completely differently (both resolution _and_
orientation).
Furthermore, when I used Meta-P to switch back to "Join Displays", my
previous configuration was lost.
