Summary: Desktop icons reset position when switching between
laptop and external displays with different
resolutions
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell

SUMMARY
When switching between laptop and external screen with different resolutions,
icon positions are reset. Tested with X11, not tested with wayland. In my case
laptop screen is 1920x1080 and external display uses 2560x1440.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a laptop with attached external display
2. Run Plasma/X11
3. Ensure only laptop display is enabled, and external display is disabled, or
other way around.
4. Arrange icons in non-default way on laptop display
5. Switch to external display only, laptop display should become disabled
6. Arrange icons in non-default way on external display
7. Ensure that screen resolution on external display doesn't match screen
resolution of laptop display
8. Switch back to laptop-only display.
9. Switch once more to external display only.
OBSERVED RESULT
On steps 8 and 9 icon positions are reset.
EXPECTED RESULT
On steps 8 and 9 icon positions should be kept how they're previously arranged.
