I agree the default setting is sane and it's configurable either way. The only problem is a lack of GUI to change it without having to install gnome-tweak-tool. So that's really just a bug in gnome-control-center.

Bios will show on the external monitor, as well as gdm when boot is finished. You can then choose a user and type in your password, which is accepted. But then, system goes to sleep (as the lid is cloesd I guess). Going out of sleep with the power button shows the gnome shell.
