Applications which are extremely performance critical and accuracy-critical, where the compositor shouldn’t touch rendered pixels at all? Yeah, that works great, right?
We can just enforce the functionality in all new toolkits and deprecate old ones. Existing, old software will just render badly, like it does today, and everything new or updated will get all the advantages.
We can even enforce a new Wayland2 protocol, everything old can just render through XWayland as a blurry mess, Gtk3/4 included (they do support X still after all), and everything new can use the improved protocol immediately.
