would allow to implement it with minimum changes to the interface.
The accelerant would still need to know which head it's operating on.
Also, the drivers would need to be redesigned to support spawning an
accelerant for each "monitor". The Radeon HD driver (several others as
well I think) isn't aware of the number of monitors attached to each
display.
