Except when the past is better: More capable, complete, and highly 
evolved architectural design. Read and understand Thomas' posts.

Wayland improves performance over X11's client-server model? Fine. If it 
wasn't possible to streamline X11 (I'm not convinced) then do the full 
redesign ... but include all the capabilities of the ICCCM and EWMH 
APIs. Even via an alternate, lower performance, internal path if necessary.

As I said before, Wayland sucks. If for no other reason that it will 
force me to use bloated, crap window managers (excuse me: "Desktop 
Environments"). Either that or primitive tiling ones (talk about living 
in the past). But I guess I'll be able to play live, alpha-blended video 
as the background in a terminal window -- a nightmare, I mean utopian 
dream, I never knew I had or needed.
