The last several comments is doing nothing at all to help the case of
those wishing to revert libx11.  Still no data about *specific* apps
with *specific* problems (backtraces or at least stderr msgs) are NOT
being posted to this bug report.  If problems are so pervasive, then I
would expect it to be a simple matter to reproduce and post some factual
details (screenshots, error logs, *something*).  Simply ranting more
loudly and being insulting doesn't help - just makes me question all the
more if there actually are any facts behind the assertions.  I'll give
it a few more weeks but without solid evidence will close this as
wontfix.

Ripping out xcb-enabled libx11 from hardy would be a HUGE amount of work
that will impact a number of people, and not something I'm willing to
entertain without unquestionably clear, detailed benefits that I can
show to Canonical management and those people who will be affected by
this and that will need to sign off on it.  Many won't care so much
about proprietary software to begin with, so convincing them to make
changes simply to improve proprietary software is going to be hard to
justify to begin with.  Non-CoC comments like "remove the XCB
infection!", "Does no one at Canonical CARE?" etc. just serve to harden
opinions against making any further changes, and invest any further time
beyond the good deal we've put in already.
