Sure, I've enabled direct enumeration when the process has access to
that information from the kernel. Right now, that means using the
kms_display extension to pass a suitable file descriptor into the driver
so that it doesn't open a render node instead.

We could do this without an extension by having the driver detect that
you were trying to enumerate displays and go open a suitable master for
you, which would work if you had suitable permissions.

I think what Dave was suggesting was that once you have called
acquire_xlib_display that display enumeration would then list (at least)
those displays, all without any changes to the spec.
