Hi,
I think X11 has had its days back in the 90s. Not sure it is worth the
effort trying to make it great. You may as well start with a new
design and create something new.
Do you have a better option ?
Something that's compatible with existing clients and fully supporting
core features like network transparency, dedicated window managers, etc,
etc ?
All those things are still required in many places, not just for old
legacy, but actually new stuff.
My biggest gripe with X11 and the GUI
frameworks that sit on top are: the bloat, bad UI design and
inconsistent look and feel across different applications. It is one big
mess.
Sure. But that's not an issue of the underlying display server.
Feel free to come up with a new widget toolkit :)
