            Bug ID: 105804
           Summary: Custom resolutions for Wayland
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: wayland

Hello
I've been using Wayland for quite a long time already. Since one of my displays
provides invalid EDID data, I'm unable to set the resolution properly, because
the OS think that the device supports only 4 resolutions: 640x480, 848x480,
800x600 and 1024x768.
Until lately, I used a hacky solution – forcing the kernel to load a specific
EDID for specific output on boot. That way, I was able to use only resolution
specified in that EDID.
But lately, that solution stopped working on my machine, and, since Wayland
does not support adding custom resolution, I was forced back to X, because
thanks to xrandr I'm capable of doing so.
I think that Wayland should have an option to replicate that feature.
