I apologize; this is kind of a weird situation and I messed up in explaining
this well.

Current workaround:

I disabled KScreen 2, following advice I found on reddit, following a google
search. This caused the problem that screen positions weren't remembered, so I
installed arandr, saved the config, and configured the script it generates to
run on startup in KDE. Ever since I've done this, everything works the way I
want: closing the laptop lid does nothing, and when I log in, the screen
display ends up the way I would like it to be.

The Problem:

Before I arrived at my workaround, detailed above, I was frustrated by this
problem: whenever I closed my laptop's lid, all the windows on my laptop's
display jumped over to the external display. Also, plasma desktop would crash:
the screen would go black, then the wallpaper would redraw, then eventually the
task manager would return. Since the default install leaves KScreen 2 enabled,
I figured I should file a bug report, since this must be effecting other
people, especially given the fact that disabling KScreen 2 was recommended as a
workaround.

Background:

I already modified power settings, because I didn't want my computer to suspend
when I close the laptop lid, so that was the first thing I did after installing
KDE. So, I'm not sure how upower fits in to the equation here.
