Umm, I guess I forgot one important aspect. When X comes up, it finds a
good video mode and gets a picture. It's just the text consoles that
have no picture.
In the console, it tells it's using 352x132 console. This translates
with 8x16 font to 2816x2112 and 9x16 font to 3168x2112 if I calculated
the right thing.
Running fbset remotely verifies this:
# fbset -s </dev/tty1
mode "2816x2114"
geometry 2816 2114 2816 2114 8
timings 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
accel true
rgba 8/0,8/0,8/0,0/0
endmode
So it decides this modeline is usable for the console while it is not.

X uses 2048x1536 successfully. 1600x1200, 1920x1440, 1280x1024 all work
fine, just tested with xrandr.

X without configuration also gets a working 2048x1536.
X conf seems to be quite irrelevant - scree-related things here, and my
list of resolutions is ignored anyway for some reason not important
righh now.
