I'm not too worried about branch devices with multiple downstreams just
yet.  I don't know of any you can buy anyway.  Even if you could there's
some open questions about how we'd present them to the user, and the
whole concept will need rethinking once we get multiple-stream support.

The only case I can think of where this might not work sanely is an
active DP->HDMI adaptor with sinks for both audio and video?  But again,
I don't think those exist.  If they do you'd expect both the A and V
sinks to plug simultaneously, so sink count should always be either zero
or non-zero, so it should work anyway.

Will do, thanks for testing!
