--- Comment #3 from Chris Wilson <chris at chris-wilson.co.uk> ---
It's a passive DP->DVI adapter that uses the HDMI encoder. How we name the
outputs is very, very loose and has to be since we have no idea what the actual
connector on the chasis is.

If we want to be smart, we call the connector DDI and let it have both DP/HDMI
modes (which is a connector property). This also gets around the presentation
of both DP and HDMI for the same physical connector and the belief that we
could drive both at the same time.

Gone with WONTFIX as it is designed in behaviour at this point. Fortunately,
this is not presented in GUIs which just list monitors and modes and
configuration.
