For GNOME 3.10, all the display configuration/xrandr code has been moved into Mutter as dbus interface. The Main reason for this move was to abstract away the display server (x11/wayland).

This affects gnome-desktop3 and gnome-settings-daemon. In particular the changes in gnome-desktop would create a gigantic mess if we tried to revert these changes for Unity only. As such it seems the cleanest solution would be to copy the display config interface from Mutter into Unity. The code itself is fairly self contained, so apart from the resulting duplication of code, it shouldnt really be much of an issue.
