Yeah, we always scale at present. There's a plan to make the mode
selectable via a property to one of three sizes:

 1) pixel-for-pixel (no scaling)
 2) aspect-ratio preserving (keep pixels square)
 3) full screen (use entire LCD)

It's not a huge amount of work, and it's fairly isolated from other
driver changes, but it also doesn't keep the laptop from working, so
it'll probably have to wait while more pressing things are getting fixed
(like i855 LVDS failing on most machines).
