New description:
Older monitors obviously don't use the "additional video mode" to define
their native/best/preferred resolution. Instead, you'll obviously often
find something like 640x480 there. See #4625 for an example syslog.
This could be detected, and a better mode be chosen if EDID allows it.
I filed this under the app_server, but this also affects the boot loader.
