Sure, you could add something like that on top once the basic multiple QScreen 
support is in place. (for HDMI at least, replicating more or less what 
'tvservice' does. Not sure what (if any) API you have for other type of 
displays, though.)

Can't we do something similar to QT_QPA_EGLFS_KMS_CONFIG and share the
json file setup here as well ? This would make it way more consistent.
