Looking at the list of connector types (and wondering if we're gonna
need more when converting existing fbdev drivers to drm drivers),
there seem to be two different families of connector types, for
  1. transports between CRTC and display (e.g. VGA, DVID, HDMI),
  2. transports between CPU and CRTC (e.g. SPI, possibly USB, and
     the proposed I2C)?

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
