Interestingly, on X11 one display shows "Model" (BenQ PD2700U) and another one
shows both manufacturer and the model (Dell Inc. DELL P2418D) while both fields
are used on wayland.

Here's DDC:
   Mfg Id:               DEL
   Model:                DELL P2418D

   Mfg Id:               BNQ
   Model:                BenQ PD2700U

I'd assume that resolver used for wayland doesn't have mapping for "Mfg Id:
BNQ" and just uses Id itself. And resolver on X11 skips unknown manufacturer.

Ideally, I'd perfect to just have what I have in "Model" in both cases but in
reality it is likely that some manufacturers add the name in Model and some
don't. Probably that might depend on many factors and even the same
manufacturer might have different naming schemes.

There will be no ideal solution. But there should be some middle ground which
will make names pretty but still descriptive. I guess telemetry could be used
to gather this kind of data.
