Yes, that's unfortunate, but not something we can easily fix. The message is
actually only printed once when winex11.drv is loaded, but this happens for
each process that loads winex11.drv.

The most significant things RandR 1.3 gets you are RRGetScreenResourcesCurrent
to query the current configuration without polling the display connectors, and
the ability to set the display mode independently on different displays of a
multihead setup. (I.e., changing the display mode of one display without either
the other displays going black or the contents getting stretched over all
displays.) Note though that even the RandR 1.0 implementation in the
proprietary NVIDIA drivers has its own issues.
