It's embedded stuff after all, the amount of custom stuff is always off the charts.

It doesn't say 10 bit per se, but the HDR standards mentioned require 10 bit per channel.

I do wonder, though, if this feature is only for 10 BPC RGB. Could GNOME/Mutter also support YCbCr encodings (4/4/4, 4/2/2, 4/2/0) for those channels? It seems we are getting very close to HDR support in Linux!
