Hi,

yes, that work is very related. Before that, Weston did not support
starting without connected outputs nor unplugging the last output.

If you play with hotplug, you may also encounter a problem with
tracking the connected and disconnected outputs. The problem is
known, but not fixed yet.


Thanks,
