is this in someones plans already? Because I'm still having trouble 
understanding parts of the rockchip driver sometimes, so feel in no way 
qualified to try to get this tackled in some reasonable timeframe :-)

yep, i2c probably being the wrong place was one of the caveats in the cover 
letter and I was hoping some more seasoned drm people could suggest where this 
should live after all.

As your comments further down suggest that we might introduce some different 
components, simply congregate them in a "components" subdir or something 
splitting them more?

Wild guess, support both in such generic components and let bind decide which 
to use ... is there some sort of drm_is_atomic() against the master device.

ok, so you suggest to have this split. Taking into account Rob's comment 
probably a "simple-encoder" and a "ddc-connector" for connectors using system 
i2c busses? And then connect everything via ports.
