Most of the arguments sound irrelevant: >Wayland breaks everything! It is binary incompatible, provides no clear transition path with 1:1 replacements for everything in X11, and is even philosophically incompatible with X11 Being binary compatible is a moot point, 1:1 replacement for "everything in X11" are not an issue if the subset you need works or has good replacements, and being "philosophically incompatible" is part of the point of using it. >Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement Yes, you can't use Xkill to kill a Wayland-based application- wasn't that a given. You can use regular kill or whatever means your DE provides (several do). If your workflows depend on regular use of xkill, you have bigger problems than it not being available for Wayland.
