Ajax, I think Ian still has an open request on how to proceed with the infoframes quirk nightmare.
Indeed.

In terms of moving forward with the rest of the EDID quirk stuff, are you OK with either of these options:
Remove EDID_QUIRK_NO_AUDIO from the flags for the LG L246WP. It won't work "out of the box" with the Intel driver until that driver is fixed to not send audio InfoFrames to non-HDMI displays (but anyone who has the combination will be able to add their own quirk to make it work).
Leave both flags, because both are accurate. The display is confused by any InfoFrames (audio or AVI), and it is reporting non-existent audio capabilities. The fact that the combination of the two flags makes the display work with Intel GPUs is a happy/sad/neutral accident, and the driver's behavior is still considered broken.
(Essentially, this would mean just editing the comments to reflect the above reasoning.)
