One suggestion from back then was, instead picking out singular properties like
"active color format", to just expose whatever the last HDMI or DP metadata
block(s)/frame(s) that was sent over the display wire was to userspace and
accompanying it with a parsing script.
Question: Does the driver really actually know what the GPU is ultimatively
sending out the wire, or is that decided by a final firmware blob we have no
info about?
Greetings
