3) Option "ScaleType" documentation in the man page:
a) typo: "scaling both up and down.i"
a) center means not to scale but center the image on the panel i.e. apply a
black frame around the image on the panel in case the panel
resolution is lower than the one of the external display.
here "in case the panel resolution is lower than the one of the external
display." should be changed to "if the resolution of the external
display is lower than the panel resolution." (the same of the "none"
mode).
b) the difference between "default" and "none"/"center" is not very clear to
me; are "none"/"center" supposed to modify aspect ratio?
c) the "scale_keep_aspect_ratio" comment is not very clear.

Note also that the "ScaleType" option appears to work not only for
"Sets the scaling mode for laptop flat panels when used together with
an external screen." but also when the requested screen size is
different than the real screen size, but this is not clear on the man
page.
