Bad or missing resolutions are pretty much always invalid EDID 
information provided by the hardware.  Windows tends to use information 
provided by the INF files to correct bad data, where X.org expects 
hardware to provide information that's accurate.  I'd agree that the 
ability to read errata in the form of an INF would be an appropriate 
addition to X.org, but I hardly thing that behaving according to the 
limitations that hardware indicates means that X.org or Fedora is 
broken.  Hardware that provides bad EDID clearly is.
