Bug Description

I'm using Oneiric x64 on a laptop that has an external monitor connected to it. I use only the external screen and not the laptop's screen. However when I launch a guest session it's going to use both screens mirrored and it will look ugly. I think the guest session should somehow use the screen settings that was last used by a non-guest user. Because that is supposed to be the optimal setting. I understand that this is rather a wishlist item and not a bug but I feel that this would make Ubuntu better.
