Title:
  screen session destroyed when physical screen switched away

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  If I start a screen session and log out, the session persists.  If I
  start a screen session and use my KVM to switch my main monitor to
  another computer, leaving this computer temporarily headless, my
  screen session gets destroyed.  (This computer and the monitor both
  hook up to the KVM switch with DisplayPort.)

  At least, that is some part of the condition for my screen session
  getting abruptly closed.  Switching the KVM for a short period of time
  seems insufficient, but it has happened several times when I left my
  monitor switched to the other computer for longer periods.  When my
  screen session gets destroyed, I also have to log back in to gdm,
  rather than just unlock my Wayland session.

  Please revert this steaming mess of dreck known as systemd.
