It might be a good idea to query the user for a driver disk for the monitor they're using, and read the .inf file from it. This makes it possible to use even very new monitors, that aren't in the monitor database, and can't be autoprobed for some reason (old graphics card or whatever)
Fantastic idea. Probably will be implemented at some point in the future.
