Maybe we should look at this other half of the problem first.  It is
pretty clear the protocol must be extended to for this.  Once we have
this we might be able to do

   if (extension-available) {
       display_id = lookup_in_extended_channel_info();
   } else {
       display_id = channel_id ? channel_id : monitor_id;
   }

Ideally the display_id stays the same in configurations which can be
supported today.

cheers,
