As i see it there are 3 types of "machines"
1) Those without a screen (i.e nslu)
2) Those that can be with or without a screen (efika, a pc) depending on
configuration
3) Those with screen (all the rest) :)

The "problem" might be with those on category 2 as you can't know in advance
if they have screen or what the size of that will be.
But one could always specify these parameters later (local.conf or distro
settings)

Other than that i am also in favour of the proposued naming
