I don't see how it solves the problem here though. After a
suspend/resume cycle, there is simply no indication that anything has
changed when a monitor was replaced by another one, so I don't see how
adding a counter in the mix would help.
Could you provide more details about the reasoning? I feel like I'm
missing something here.
