Dumping the whole codebase may be a bit extreme, but it
sure opens the discussion well ;-)

Maybe dumping the legacy support would be a good start,
offer some kind of compatibility module instead, true
type font support would be nice and an easy way for all
applications to use it, smooth window moving like in OSX
where you can still read it while you drag it etc. 

Sounds like XF 5 may improve on some of this stuff, but
it's still behind the 8 ball compared to OSX.

Would you care to enlighten us about the problems with X that are so
serious it requires dumping the entire codebase and starting from
scratch?
