We mark anything requiring kernel/userspace binaries as Proprietary. Card side firmware we don't explicitly call out, since it's IOMMU isolated. If we see any libre GPU options start showing up, we'll start calling out cards that require vendor firmware somehow, but for now there's no real point considering the state of the GPU market.
