Let's review the title of the series: "Cool Tools I Don't Really
Understand." You may have mistaken me for a much more knowledgeable
person. :-)
I know how to google to find the monitor specs and set the horizontal and
vertical refresh ranges and resolutions with the config script. Or at
least I re-learn it successfully every time I have to do this. :-) Not
necessarily more than that.

Good idea. Do you have a speaker lined up? I'd like to hear that talk.
:-)
Also, this isn't the main talk, this is a 5-10 minute opening slot. I'm
guessing everything about X might just take a *bit* longer than that, and
not fit into the not-too-complex target level either.

Sure, bring someone to raz me. :-)
