I think csync is pretty much always negative. Well, tri-state sync is
both negative and positive, but it goes negative first.

Hmm. I tought EDID 1.4 got rid of that, but I guess it still
implies the hsync polarity applies to csync too.

Confusuingly it only talks about hsync and nothing about vsync.
Maybe it means both really. Not sure how anything would work 
anyway if hsync and vsync had opposite polarity here. Wouldn't
that just mean everything looks like vsync?

So I guess grabbing the csync polarity from that bit is
probably correct.
