You are misunderstanding the --display option. It is a GTK+ option for the X11 display (which has nothing to do with a "display" in the monitor sense and is the DISPLAY environment variable), not a gnome-network-display option.

Yeah, FullHD is currently hardcoded … it will scale the image up for sending to the monitor. See #99
