Retrieving monitor connection information

For example, the advantage of having connection information is that I can
provide the following behaviour:

1. User assigns Camera 1 to DisplayPort1
2. User disconnects DisplayPort1
3. User connects a new monitor to DisplayPort1
4. Camera 1 is restored on the new monitor.

Regards,
Andrew.
