Not really a huge fan of this automagic fallback. I think I'd prefer
to keep it mandatory and just provide this as a helper for drivers to
plug into the right spot. Otherwise I'm sure I'll forget how this works
and then I'll be confused when I see a connector withput any apparent
.get_modes() implementation.
