Aligning video= and dumb buffers almost sounds like going backwards. video= parameter is bad,

Who told you that? Video= is still the way to specify an initial display mode to the kernel and it will remain so.

Of course, it is better to auto-detect settings, but that's for a different use case.

Harmonizing code is fine, but I think that can be done with a function that only does the fallback-case.

So... I can only speak for the platforms I'm using and maintaining, but I'd rather keep the old behavior for CREATE_DUMB that we've had for ages.
