Here are possible answers :
What do you do when an app is saved and the second monitor is not
available anymore?
The same thing you do when you were in 1600x1200 and switched back to
640x480. Basically it's just a difference between width and height in
both cases.
And how do you handle getting the windows lost on the second monitor
back in a user friendly manner?
Managing a nuclear blast can not be handled in a user friendly manner,
same thing for monitor lost.
And how do you do all of this intuitively to someone whose second
monitor blew up and the system hasn't yet detected the monitor as being
"dead"?
You do nothing because the graphic card health is the information, not
the health of the monitor. Try on a two monitors settings to unplug the
VGA connector to your graphic card.
And where do you put those windows when you do detect the monitor is
gone?
Nothing because nothing can tell you whether the user is getting rid of
its 15" display to replace it with a 21" display.
