That would eliminate some, but note that for example YCBCR444 needs a faster 
pixel clock then YCBCR420, so it's interdependent with everything else that 
changes the required pixel clock like bpc, resolution and refresh rate.

So the config space is n-dimensional with no "right angle box" clearly 
separating working from non working combinations.

But I just had the idea:

Currently in KDE and Gnome UI you first select the resolution, to then wee what 
refresh rates are available. So I guess this concept could be appended to color 
properties -> Define a sequence for the different properties to be applied 
across all drivers and as soon as you select one, the next property in the 
sequence is TEST_ONLYed.

e.g.:

1. Select resolution -> Available refresh rates are updated

2. Select refresh rate -> Available color formats are updated

3. Select color format -> Available bpc are updated

etc.

So you can't select a bpc that doesn't fit your current color format. Changing 
color format can change the available bpc. One maybe counter intuitive thing 
here is that color format "auto" might not have all bpc settings available, as 
auto will for example actually be RGB which has higher pixel clock requirements 
then ycbcr420. And in this model, color format is always decided first. Or vice 
versa if bpc is decided to be before color format in the sequence.
