I've just spent some time experimenting with the state of X-on-windows.
It seems that there are two main options:
- Rootless mode (the default install for VcXsrv), in which your windows are managed by the Win10 WM and integrate quite nicely
- Rooted mode, in which you can use your own window manager, but the windows are restricted to living inside a native Windows window. Using this in fullscreen on a virtual desktop provides a near-linux experience, but some remapping is required so you don't conflict with Windows' alt-tab, etc. Other bits of integration like copy&paste still co-exist nicely.
