Right. That will at least be useful as a datapoint (eg. we know that it
doesn't work automatically on this hardware, and we know how it behaves
on Windows).

I doubt that David has access to all the hardware, and all the specs
necessary to assert that no other hardware can do that automatically ;)

In any case, I filed this bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755062

And we'll need to discuss with the designers how we would integrate all
this.
