Looking at:

* Replace default mode list with GTF and CVT generator algorithm

That one has my vote.  BTW:  how doable would be taking the DDC libraries
and making a stand-alone utility that could query and dump the DDC/EDID
information (or via switches, just dump particular fields...)... so it 
could be
post-processed by Perl or Python scripts to help create canned 
configurations,
etc?

Perhaps even use it to be able to do:

% make -C /etc/X11 xorg.conf.dual-head

and it would probe for the various parameters, and then cobble up an 
xorg.conf
file...

Sound useful?
