I've no idea, and I was hoping that someone else would know - my use of
it comes from research into what will make userspace work, not what
standards may say.

XV_ITURBT_709 is already in-use in distro standard userspace programs:

# grep XV_ITURBT_709 /usr/lib/vlc/plugins/ -r
Binary file /usr/lib/vlc/plugins/video_output/libxcb_xv_plugin.so matches
# grep XV_ITURBT_709 /usr/lib/gstreamer-1.0/ -r
Binary file /usr/lib/gstreamer-1.0/libgstxvimagesink.so matches

but not XV_COLORSPACE:

# grep XV_COLORSPACE /usr/lib/vlc/plugins/ -r
# grep XV_COLORSPACE /usr/lib/gstreamer-1.0/ -r

So while XV_COLORSPACE may be some kind of standard, it seems that
userspace has decided otherwise to go with a different name for this
control.

Anyway, I'll drop this patch and send a pull request for the remainder
to David.
