My admittedly brief reading of the announcement indicated that the video support
was only rudimentary and was intended more for devices like LCD screens. i.e.
the RPi 2 would not be used as a general-purpose platform but more in the nature
of, say, a control unit in an elevator (lift) or a weighing machine for
supermarket vegetables.
