Hi Maxime,
Thanks for your patch!

Nit: strictly speaking these are not analog modes, but the digital
variants (ITU-R BT.656 and DVD-Video D1) of NTSC and PAL, using a
13.5 MHz sampling frequency for pixels.
In analog modes, the only discrete values are the number of lines, and
the frame/field rate (fixing the horizontal sync rate when combined).
The number of (in)visible pixels per line depends on the available
bandwidth. In a digital variant (which is anything generated by a
digital computer system), the latter depends on the pixel clock, which
can wildly differ from the 13.5 MHz used in the BT.656 standard. (e.g.
Amiga uses 7.09/14.19/28.38 MHz (PAL) or 7.16/14.32/28.64 MHz (NTSC)).
So I think we probably need some way to generate a PAL/NTSC-compatible
mode based not only on resolution, but also on pixel clock.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
