Public bug reported:
The past & current in 14.04 behaviour was to always re-enable the touchpad
immediately if disabled upon removing an external mouse
(- either explicitly or having the mouse break or batteries go bad, ect.
Now the touchpad stays disabled, both in current session & after a reboot.
This seems to be poor behaviour as the user would need to manually re-enable
the touchpad without the use of a mouse or get a working mouse, batteries, ect.
to get the mouse back or re-enable the touchpad.
Also affects a gnome-session/gnome-control-center.
