However, the brokenness is really on the driver side.  They are unable
to change the video mode unless they are supplied with the correct
timing parameters where in fact they actually have the best knowledge on
how to calculate them.  

So the question:  Do we let fbcon spoonfeed the timings to fbdev, or do
we let the drivers calculate it for themselves?  I go for the latter, as
fbcon really should not have any business with hardware.
I agree.
