If all it needs are information about screen sizes, DPI, etc., then there
should be a cross-platform API to do that.
If it needs concepts that aren't cross-platform, it should be reassessed, to
see if an X11 dependency is intentional or not. Maybe the code is using that
concept simply because the author didn't know he couldn't or of a better way.
The access to screen() and display() may indicate a missing Qt API, which we
may be able to add. If the X11 dependency was intentional, it can be ported to
QPlatformNativeInterface, to obtain the XCB pointers.
