Well, you might still have to do it manually from time to time (for instance
I sometimes manually switch from facebook's iphone view to the standard view
on my phone) so even with automatic detection the menu makes sense.
Plus we need to put "view source" somewhere.
After thinking about it more I'm in favor in "View" rather than
"Display"
since it's easier to understand and can accomodate broader options ("Display
-> Print view" sounds weirder than "View -> Printable version" IMO)
.

I think the usages of a such menu entry are to
low. They maybe just
agglomerate the menu.
An autodetect based on the user agent would be IMO more practical and
would
serve its purpose.
I think it's bad If I'm in "mobile" mode and I have to search 5 minute
for
the menu with "mobile" entry just to
swithc my view. It should be
autodetect.
And if it's autodetect ... then why have a "unpractical" menu entry?
I share the same opinion. I see this display mode more like a preference
in the user profile or a URL parameter (auto detect + a way to force it
if needed).

I don't know either, but I'm slightly inclined towards "Display".
I prefer "Display" too it sound maybe too technical for basic user.
