Aligning video= and dumb buffers almost sounds like going backwards.
video= parameter is bad,
Who told you that? Video= is still the way to specify an initial display
mode to the kernel and it will remain so.
Of course, it is better to auto-detect settings, but that's for a
different use case.

Harmonizing code is fine, but I think that can be done with a function
that only does the fallback-case.
So... I can only speak for the platforms I'm using and maintaining,
but I'd rather keep the old behavior for CREATE_DUMB that we've had
for ages.
