The emulation side doesn't keep it as a pure offset, but from what I remember 
it should still be relatively easy.  There might be some funky side-effects for 
attributes in mode 1, of course.

The display accesses are in a fixed pattern and offset from the start of the 
frame, so I'd hope they could be singled out (still assuming they can be seen 
and overridden).  It would also mean tracking the current display mode to make 
adjustments for the layout differences.  Mmm, sounds like it's getting 
complicated and expensive already.

Beats me :)
