It wouldn't just be wayland support in motif. Even if we had wayland+motif
working *now*, it would only help with applications. CDE is fundamentally a X11
window manager, and X11 window managers are a tiny part of the equivalent in
wayland. Wayland, for... better or worse... has "compositors" in that space,
which are basically window manager + most of what the X server did + I think
some other stuff (input management, for instance). There are things like
wlroots, a library for a lot of those parts, but you're still talking about
something way bigger than what a X11 wm ever needed to do.
