I tried to read the bug and I have no idea what's going on here. Userspace
is supposed to shut off outputs that are disconnected, whether that's DP,
DP MST or something else shouldn't matter. New connectors can come&go as
they see fit. Also not really something special.

Why do we need to dynamically hide an output here? Note that this also
affects normal DP ports, which I have no idea is actually what you want to
do or not.
