OK, I was just thinking that it's all status information about
the current graphics mode. Maybe the oddity is that
gfx_capabilities is not actually part of the driver struct. :)
Windowedness could go in the driver, though, it doesn't really
matter. If it's not going to be a flag, it could even by a X,Y
coordinate pair -- though I can't see much use for that at
present. Putting it in the driver struct makes more sense if
GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED can use this to choose the driver, but
this doesn't allow for one driver to support both windowed and
fullscreen modes.
