First of all, it would be more useful if these 6 issues were submitted individually. However, let me quickly reply:

1) This is not really an intended feature for now. It only remembers the last config you had. So this is a feature request: a reliable system that saves and restores configurations e.g. based on a display's EDID.

2) That is the fault of either your hardware manufacturer or the graphic card driver. However, we can't do anything but display the info we get from there.

3) It does. However, some Xfce components don't support this yet. When using software that does (e.g. Plank, the dock), it produces the expected results.

4) Those can open the advanced dialog and pull the display to the left. This popup-dialog is supposed to be minimal, for more options, use the advanced dialog. (And yeah, you can argue that left is better than right, it's subjective.)

5) True, that is a known issue and we're working on it.

6) Not sure the "Mirror" option shouldn't appear there. If you have two displays and you click "Mirror" on one, then that naturally affects the other display too. So of course you want to be able to mirror your primary display.

Having replied to all of your points now, I'll close this report as Invalid. As I said, it's not helpful to have more than one issue per bugreport, because then you can't really track the progress. Please submit individual bugreports. Thanks!
