I recall playing with this when I heard of a strange piece of hardware
DEC was planning on making (depth 1, 8 bpp), but it wasn't all that
useful.
However, I'd say it remains useful for testing software rendering code
for depth 12, 15 and 30. Those are no longer included in the default set
of depths provided by vfb, leaving us no easy way to validate them.
