I'll check again but I'm pretty sure it didn't do that for me (checked
with xev).

Good to know.
And overall I agree. It's gotten worse with the F13 Kernel/Intel-Driver
- on F12 I could at least manually (using a script that calls xrandr)
enable the external and disable the internal display on dock. Currently
I have to reboot on pretty much each dock/undock.
I haven't gotten around to really debug/report this.

What worries me the most is that apparently distributions like OpenSUSE
and Kubuntu have this fixed (maybe using ugly hacks) - without trying to
properly upstream it :(
Agreed ;-) Once again I am sorry for my deficit in technical expertise, I am
working on it. It is a long process and I wish I could give you more.
Nonetheless, I thank all of you for recognizing the issue and working toward
solving it :-)
