Hello!

Could someone add support for the DISPLAY variable and some command line 
switch to set the display? Pretty please with a cherry on top! :)

I tried looking at the source code for osg::GraphicsContext as well as the 
osgViewer::View/Viewer code, but my C++ and understand of OSG finer detail 
is not good enough at the moment. (working on it!)

It'd be great to have this as a fix for the 2.2 release, it's no hurry 
though.
Meanwhile, how does one use osg::GraphicsContext to set the display? All I 
see is the getDisplay method and I can't find anything named "display" in 
Traits. I'm clueless.
