I can't imagine someone being able to write one without being flamed on all sides because there are so many guilty parties including the potential users themselves. I don't think it helped that the core protocols were so minimal though or that the reference implementation was really just that. Both GNOME and KDE went their own way on building their own compositors and I think that was sad :(
