My idea is to write a patch that adds kernel peroperties to solve
this, but while people still don't have kernel 3.4, the tool would be
useful.

If adding this tool to i-g-t is not a good idea, that's fine too: I
still plan to write the kernel patches, so people wanting overscan
compensation will have to use the kernel patch instead of the tool.
