Is that useful at all, considering that a monitor is on by default at

If needed, I can write a patch that documents both options, of course, but I
am not convinced that an option that does that same than the default
behaviour is useful.

That's not the same as the default behaviour.

Then what is the default behaviour? According to the manpage:
Option "Enable" "bool"
   This  optional  entry  specifies  whether the monitor should be
   turned on at startup.  By default, the server will  attempt  to
   enable  all  connected monitors.  (RandR 1.2-supporting drivers
   only)

If this is not the case, then this last sentence should be corrected as well, which I can do in the same patch, only I am not sure of what the default behaviour is then.
