Does it matter if the monitor's switched to another PC, at the time?
And I presume it has to be powered on.  

The latter one's a bone of contention with me.  Even without a KVM in
the mix, computers can be turned on while the monitor is still off.
Particularly if they have a real power switch on the monitor.  I'd
rather that graphics configuration is set when I say so, not each time I
boot up.  It also reinforces the Windows way (just reboot the thing,
rather that reconfigure it properly).
