I think that leaving named modes only would be a bit limiting. There are use
cases for custom modes, e.g. we might want progressive 240p "NTSC" (like 80s/90s
home computers and video game consoles) or the modes with non-13.5MHz pixel
clock that Geert requested with Amiga in mind.
I'm not sure if the current cmdline-to-drm_mode conversion is flexible enough
to meaningfully facilitate those, but we're at least getting the syntax down.
Best regards,
