Disabling subpixel rendering with multiple outputs sounds bad - I keep an
external LCD monitor plugged to my laptop, and both use RGB pixels.  I guess
many people are in a similar situation.

EDID data *does* tell you about the monitor's subpixel order - no idea if it is
actually accurate for most devices.  If it is, we could very well keep subpixel
rendering turned on if all the outputs have the same ordering and orientation
(if you rotate one output, we disable subpixels everywhere).
