This might be a good intermediate step between picture viewer support and
full video driver support: modifying the toolbox to open up a new graphics
mode for programs that want to support it.

There is precedence for this.  The toolbox supports both 320x200 and
640x200 with the programmer deciding the resolution.  Adding a third
option for 640x480x8-bit for those programs aware of it would still be
a huge accomplishment, even if Finder was never made aware of it.
