After some time considering this bug further, including helping my father-in-law try running the Hardy beta Live CD on his notebook (native resolution is 1024x768 but he only got 800x600 by default) I have a couple new suggestions:

First, if there is a way to have it in the menus but not visible by default, this should be done, e.g. how if you edit the GNOME menu you will note items which you have to put a check-mark next to to appear.

Would modifying the fields:

Categories=GNOME;GTK;Settings;HardwareSettings;System;
NotShowIn=KDE;GNOME

do the trick?

Second, would it make sense to file a new (wishlist-type) bug to have an "Advanced" button put into gnome-display-properties that invokes displayconfig-gtk when pressed?
