> Does wayland have an X11 compatibility feature? 

Wayland has an 'XWayland' layer that allows regular X clients to talk to
a Wayland server. However, this does not support special X clients like
window managers or (as I understand it) automation tools like 'xdotool'.
So you can run an X-based editor or xterm under Wayland, at least to
some degree, but you can't run fvwm; the special X APIs that window
managers use don't work.
