Unfortunately, no. I remember reading about it somewhere, a few years ago. I 
think there might have been a court case on it.

Don't know. Haven't explored that.

Agreed.

KDE and Gnome provide a much richer API than X, hence
lots of programs being written for it. I'll bet not
that many apps are written for X anymore.

I guess I'd like to see a Linux GUI that is more
abstracted than X or even KDE|Gnome. A pure SVG
(http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/) capable desktop
where apps describe their visual interfaces in XML.
Ok, I'm dreaming...
