Comment 49 for bug 403610

Found this in kdebase-workspace-4.2.2/kcontrol/randr/outputconfig.cpp starting at line 258.

 // FIXME: RandRScreen::applyProposed() has a bit of code for positioning
 // outputs, but it's commented out and might not work as is. Until someone
 // gets this to work, it's probably better not to show these controls.
 positionLabel->setVisible(true);
 positionCombo->setVisible(true);
 positionOutputCombo->setVisible(true);

Looks like this was intentionally turned off because the code behind it isn't fully implemented.

Looks like it still hasn't been fixed in the latest code in SVN. It would be really nice to have this for 4.3.
