Comment(by glynn):

 > However, the monitor concept is essential also for GRASS 7. At least for
 power users who stick to the command line.

 Why? Someone who "sticks to the command line" won't even have wxGUI
 running, in which case d.mon etc don't do anything for them.

 > The current behaviour of d.* to silently write into a PNG file is
 unhelpful.

 Yet, that's how those commands behaved since the display system was re-
 written. I don't recall any discussion about the behaviour; it got changed
 by accident and now that's how it's "supposed" to be? When did we agree to
 this change, and why?
