The GFX_MODE_DEFINITE flag is for determining whether a given mode 
always sets a windowed or fullscreen mode. It's there for convenience, 
but I think it's worth it. That way you can expressly limit modes that 
aren't forced to set specifically one or the other, like GFX_AUTODETECT 
and GFX_SAFE. Similarly, the GFX_MODE_MAGIC flag is there as a 
convenience as well, so a programmer could limit a list to the actual 
drivers available, and also to be able to prevent several modes from 
being attempted at the same time if they choose to.

I think it would be a shame not to, with all the work that's gone into 
integrating the addons into the build process, and the bug fixes as well.

I'll take a closer look at gfx_mode_select_filter and see what it is 
doing currently in the next day or two.
