While I appreciate having choices at some levels, for infrastructure it's always good to have everyone agreed. Desktop Linux has been held back by the X11/replacement situation for years (there, I'll say it), and the sooner we can all get (back) on the same page, at least for this one piece, the better.
Many open-source communities are run by perfectionists (and I must count myself among the worst of them). While it's a noble goal to create a gem that will stand the test of time, it's disheartening to see proprietary products move faster by making a decision, even a lousy one, and then shipping it and making it work.
