It would seem there should be a more generic compatible to cover the basic "panel-simple" case.

If these are all optional, what does it mean to be a "panel-simple"?

We'd normally do this as unique binding specs for the specific devices and a generic one to cover the concepts of a simple panel. Who know if in the future a 'auo,b101aw03' might want some other unique properties.
