@Bryce: that's good to hear there's a new tool being developed. You don't actually seem to mention its name anywhere though - are you referring to the individual per-driver proprietary settings tools (like nvidia-settings) as the successor to displayconfig-gtk ? or is there something else.

For the record, I like the approach of having a display config tool that is independent of the driver to a degree (or at least always in the same menu spot like displayconfig-gtk is). Would it be possible to make the "Screens and graphics" link be some sort of switching alias that launches the specific config tool (e.g. nvidia-settings) for the loaded X driver if available, and the deprecated displayconfig-gtk as a fallback ?
