Have you considered creating an xorg.conf file and putting your
modelines in the Monitor section? (My searches are leading me
to believe that this is one method of achieving your goal).

Or is this off base or just avoiding the fundamental question of what file is
sourced by what when and not overriden by another file subsequently (or
something), which must be learned before xorg.conf is eventually
obsoleted out of existence.
It's great to be modular but it can get complicated.
