I would add a note that GLVND based Mesa and GLVND itself aren't updated.
Might be a good idea to add an inline comment or two.

Either my client seems to have gone crazy here or Nicolai's name is off?

We don't need the device here. What would happen if we give an invalid
combination of display/drivername?

Analogous to the above, we want some clarification what would happen when the
functions fail. Do we expect some error code to be set?
Without such information applications don't known what to do as a follow-up.

One cannot use backend specific functions (dri2,haiku) here. I'd would suggest
adding new internal API to the struct _egl_api and use them.
WRT the Config API - it should will be almost identical to the GLX one in
src/glx/dri_glx.c.
The major differences will be:
- basic check that the display + driver name combo is valid
- the display/driver is already known and opened, so we can drop the
driver_config_cache, driOpenDriver() and dlsym("__driConfigOptions") fallback.
