Bug Description
The user session crashes when I disconnect the DVI cable from my computer (which I do to connect another monitor instead). A similar problem is described in two recent questions on AskUbuntu:

I could not find a related bug report to subscribe to so here I am. I would except the session to be available as if nothing had happened when I reconnect the screen, or at most that the session is locked (but still running).
These are the system logs from when I tested it twice, at 00:26:50 and at 00:28:30. (I'm not sure if the rfkill message is related.)
