Self reply because I found a solution! \o/

I picked up an ASUS MB169B+ (USB-3 version, not USB-C). Getting it to
work was surprisingly easy, but did take a touch of work to sort out. So
I write a little tutorial here for anyone else who might want a similar
setup:

I now have to sort out mixing hidpi (4k laptop screen) and normal dpi
(ASUS). There is a hint here:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/393400/is-it-possible-to-have-two-different-dpi-configurations-for-two-different-screen
but I've not yet tried it. If I get it setup properly, I'll update the
tutorial.

Cheers and thanks to those who replied earlier. :D
