I really hope that until then we'll manage to migrate to Wayland, or some other technology more modern than X11.

  You acknowledge the irony in trying to migrate away from X11 (a thirty-year-old technology) to "some other technology more modern", while staying with Unix (a forty-year-ald technology), right? By which I mean, there are problems with X11, but age is just a correlated factor, not a cause, so it doesn't help to say we need something newer. Weyland makes different design decisions, and some of them might turn out to be better in the long run and some of them might not. (Personally, I expect Weyland's lack of a "window manager" process will annoy me vastly more than the protocol quirks of X11, which have mostly been papered over by GTK+ and Qt by now.)
