Not seeing any feedback, I went ahead and pushed this. I'm planning on
sending out patches to update xrandr.c to handle these things, and I'd
like to make it just handle "GUID" rather than both "GUID" and the
unofficial "_GUID".

These things actually exist in the real world now:

and most ridiculously,
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?sku=225-4201
Once this is a real, specified property, I'll probably want to add
special handling of it in xrandr:
DP-3.8 connected primary 2560x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x
axis y axis) 673mm x 284mm
_GUID: 16 -34 -112 112 0 4 -36 38 -81 78 -30 27 0 0 0 22

This property represents the globally-unique identifier of the connected
