I tried a really tentative benchmarc looking for "LCD monitor" and "LCD monitor
1080 HDMI" among computer monitors on google products. 1080p HDMI monitors are
10000 out of 95000, more than any other resolution but 1280x1024 (13000,
regardless of connection type)
I think this will do more harm than good, but I see how this is a judgement
call.

Still, wouldn't it be better to have a way disable it via a proper setting
(xorg.conf) instead of using Xsession?
Also, a way to disable underscanning even if X isn't running could be nice
(though I guess someone using text only on a HDMI screen isn't really a common
use case)
