Doing so requires writing a server and library that everyone can agree on, which probably will not happen and is probably one of the main reasons they did not do it in the first place.
- dolni 4y agoDespite the whining of anti-systemd people, it worked for systemd. I fail to see why it would not have worked for Wayland.
- Crysstalis 4y agoPlease see one of my other replies here. When implementing an X11 compositor those parts were already done separately anyway, and this is actually the entire point of X11 compositing. So the trend with X11 was already going away from the direction that you suggest. There is a remote possibility that some person comes along and builds a server and library that will work for everybody. But such things would probably be very large, much larger than systemd. Actually, the closest thing to what you describe is probably a web browser and HTML5, but building a desktop on that seems to be not popular aside from Chrome OS.
