Brightness loss: Only if I stray from the native white point, right?
Resolution: Yes, I see this, especially with 8 bit LUTs. :) Do video
cards support 16 bit value LUTs at all these days? (eg: is this
possibly an X limitation within Linux?)
The main issue right now is that Linux has poor support for profiles.
Web browsing, GTK, etc., mostly all do not make use of them. Only a few
applications watch the attribute which "xicc" sets, and typically become
very slow when they do.

I should note that I just tried beta7 (as opposed to beta6), and the
output is now such that 0,0,0 black output from video card LUT is still
0,0,0. Did something change wrt this in beta7? The output is now:
0.0000 0.018335 0.011353 0.010989
3.9216e-03 0.023509 0.016135 0.016037
7.8431e-03 0.028616 0.020859 0.021008
It is my understanding that this translates to 8-bit output integers of:
0: 0 0 0
1: 1 0 0
2: 1 1 1
I attached the whole .cal file, as generated with:
dispcal -K -m -g2.2 -k0.0 -yl -qu -v benq_native_b7
Note that with "-qu", I cannot actually see a visible patch in the first
patch until patch number 9. I don't think this is because it is too
dark, but because rounding or otherwise is resulting in the output still
being RGB 0,0,0.

Hmm. Yes, I was assuming that LCDs (especially compared with CRTs) would
be perfectly additive.
Understood. Thanks!
