Hi Ard,

This did come up in discussion at some earlier point in one of the many
spins we've done of this - I don't remember if you brought it up or
someone else did - but my concern was this: If it were just X we would
be fine, but if we go down that path I'm worried about also having to
fix Mir/Wayland/whatever-the-new-exciting-display-server-is-this-week,
ad nauseum.
