Differentiate two monitors of the same model
I don't know about whether desktop environments support this. I was going to say you may need to write a script for it, but I see https://github.com/fd0/grobi definitely supports it.

Any good starting point for dynamic screen plugging?
I am using an xrandr helper (grobi) to set my screens up when connected. Problem is, my awesomewm config can only handle those changes on start. So I am just restarting awesomewm on screen change.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing wdisplays and grobi you can also consider the following projects:
autorandr - Auto-detect the connected display hardware and load the appropriate X11 setup using xrandr
awesome-sharedtags - Share and move tags on multiple screens when using the awesome window manager.
screenful - Awesome WM extension that allows automatically detect and configure connected/disconnected screens
