+1. Updated modeling and real-time features would be boon for asset
creation.

But the problem with the current display options is that it forces you
into specific workflows for animating characters with displacement.
Namely, that you have to avoid generating any large-form surface
changes via displacement (and sometimes even medium-to-small-scale
features as well), for fear that animation will create surface
intersections. If the animators don't know where the final limit
surface is, how will they know if meshes are intersecting? Not
everything can be a sim.
IMHO, Softimage is a weird creature: it is so elegant and powerful,
but has these frankly rudimentary display options... Even Modo has had
GL displacement, bump, and spec for several years now, without having
to create any realtime shaders. And as politely as I can put it, "High
Quality" viewport is anything but.

I tend to agree with Luc-Eric.
It sure is nice to see the displacement in the viewport, but it
wouldn't be as nearly as impressive if it were a sphere with a
fractal texture on it. The design, modeling and texture work are very
impressive.
Besides, the video is a little misleading because we have the
impression that the frame rate is very high.

5%, sure eric, :) this guy is so good he can make Maya show viewport
displacement by shear force of will.
