OK so why wasn't this implemented in the first place? For that matter, why does our reinvented wheel have fundamental limitations?

  It's not a core protocol's concern and the fact that it's being successfully implemented proves that there are no fundamental limitations there. I'm not happy with how the collaboration and planning between various parties involved went over years and I do believe that a lot of these adoption pains are fully self-inflicted, but that has absolutely nothing to do with Wayland's technical design.

    You can’t effectively dismiss a critique of something missing from the core protocol by declaring it to not be its concern.

      I can, I just did. It's just not a thing that should be there at all, and it's obvious once you take a second to look at what's actually in it and why (spoiler: there's too much in it and not much can be done about it now).

        You did not. You dismissed something, but not effectively.

      Why should a display manager concern itself with routing keystrokes to every application.

        Why should a display manager also have to implement window management? (I know this is a separate complaint, but I still think it's a valid one.)
