It's not a regression but a necessary change since we now use VESA framebuffer by default for all x86 installs in order to have a better display resolution. The fact that now two parameters are needed is the simple consequence of the fact that one is a kernel parameter (which *must* be passed at boot time) and one is a D-I parameter and the fact that the one does not automatically imply the other. I've applied a modified version of both your patches. I've left out the virtualization bits as I don't think they belong in a section about accessibility and disabling framebuffer in general is already also documented in the general "boot parameters" section.
