Comments can't guarantee this wouldn't break. Doesn't mean
we can't have a comment in addition though.

Sounds potentially sensible. Should do the same for the alternate clock
thing as well then I suppose.

I was pondering whether I should just convert the cea mode array into
some kind of other data structure that could store multiple variants for
each mode. But then I figured it's maybe a bit too much work for just
these few excepttions.

Another thought that occurred to me recently is that the cea mode list
is getting rather long, so I was wondering if could speed up the lookups
somehow. Currently we just do a linear search through the whole thing.
A simple bsearch() might not work out since the modes aren't necessarily
sorted in any useful order, so we might need some kind of a hash or
something, But then I figured that we shouldn't do these lookups too
often so it might not be worth the effort to optimize it.

I doubt we want to add all the variants of these modes to the list.
Having just one should be enough I think.
