Title:
  Emulated monitor EDID reports too few available graphics resolutions

Status in QEMU:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  In a Windows guest, not very many resolution modes are available.  The
  available modes are restricted by what the virtual "monitor" EDID
  reports via DDC.  And apparently, your fake monitor has a short list
  of modes.  Please add some more modes like 1152x864, at least.  But
  what would be REALLY nice is much finer granularity so that users can
  set the guest res to be just enough smaller than the host display so
  that window decorations and such fit.
