Some sort of table with a card column, a driver column, a hardware acceleration status column, and a qualitative stability column would be fantastic. I'm sure it would be useful and appreciated. I personally would love to have a set place to look up this information whenever it's needed. It seems like it wouldn't be too much of a hassle to maintain, but then I'm not exactly volunteering either (though I might in a month or two ;-).
