I wouldn't waste my time on XCB. XLib is not going to disappear. Plus Wayland is on it's way, which means you would probably have to change to that anyway.
Wayland is not the same as X11. If one wants the CustomDrawn widgetset (or fpGUI for that matter) to support Wayland natively and not through a X11 server that runs on top of Wayland then one needs to use completely new bindings. Also even if Wayland is successful it will take some time till the distros supply it (not to mention as default). Also Wayland can currently only be used if the graphics driver supports kernel mode setting which e.g. embedded devices which might be capable of running X11 do not necessarily have. So support for X11 (be it through XLib or XCB) is not a waist of time.
