Another possible solution (haven't tested this specifically, though it
works with other Preference Panes) is to move the "Displays.prefPane"

~/Library/PreferencePanes for each user you want to grant access to
that Pane to. This should allow you to restrict even the visibility of
the Display prefpane on a per-user basis.
Ick. You can control access to applications & preference panes (and
much more) on a per-user or per-group basis using Workgroup Manager.
Or, if you don't have or use that, you could create a group for people
allowed to tweak display preference, set the group owner of the display
preference pane and strip other access. Then add appropriate people to
the group.
Or, you could manually stick the XML bits in the user account that
Workgroup Manager puts there to effect the restrictions.
Mucking around in /System is bad for 101 reasons and the copies of the
preference pane stashed elsewhere will be missed with system updates.
