So to sum it up, it would be optimal to have settings for each attached screen for:

   - Normal text rendering (using Freetype subpixel rendering)
   - All vector rendering (using Freetype + AGG subpixel rendering)
 * Subpixel order
   - RGB
   - BGR
   - etc.

Yes, I have thought about this. That's more or less what I mean by "proper integration of the new technology within Haiku" in the ninth week of the coding period :-) However, I don't think there's support for more screens in Haiku right now, is there?
My understanding is that Haiku is "prepared" for more screens, whatever that means. Implementing this with multi-monitor in mind at least makes it one less barrier to overcome when implementing actual multi-monitor support. All IMO of course.
