In the current (approximate) list of

- 3D documentation (huge)
- General(!) Powermanagement support
- r8xx Documentation (which will be out then)
- Enhanced 3D documentation (even larger)
- Displayport support

this comes probably last. Add a year per line, and you'll get your docs
in about 5 years time.
Pessimistic from the time it takes point of view, optimistic from the
"we can get the information" point of view.
