One thing I wonder here is whether we should have a modifier for each
physical layout (tiling modes do change slightly between hw) or whether we
should just continue to assume that this is Intel-specific and add a
disclaimer that the precise layout depends upon the actual intel box
you're running on?

I'd kind of lean towards different modifiers per physical layout..
that seems more useful for cases where nvidia/amd support some of the
formats for buffer sharing..

Hm.. we've got physical layout, alignment restrictions, geometry restrictions, what are the odds this will be shareable or compatible, and how will the token names even looks when one puts all of this into them?

Regards,

Tvrtko
