You keep saying that the resolution can't be changed without editing the
XF86Config file, but the XFree86-Misc extension has made it possible for
years to change that setting on the fly.  It's just a matter of having
a client to interface to that extension and there are a few available,
such as the xmseconfig program that used to be distributed with XFree86.

xset does use the XFree86-Misc extension, but only for changing keyboard
settings.  There's no reason it couldn't be changed to do the same for
the mouse.
