As a linuxbios developer I'm nervious enough as is about with all this

No memory or video controllers are going to be running right on reset.
The only difference for us is that they're more complex to program.
Although Patrick's perl stuff is very complex, a simple piece of C/asm
code that converts timing numbers directly to a video program would be
very small.
Specifically it is 1667 bytes to generate the appropriate video controller binary image with arbitrary timing values. That is when compiled with the stock gcc 3.4.5 optimizations.
