"the X Window System" is an abstraction used to arbitrate access to the display+IO devices: a daemon (the X server) acts as the intermediary and apps talk to that daemon via a library over a socket. That's exactly analogous to the idea I talked about by no coincidence.
I still can access /dev/mem, /dev/fb or /dev/mouse in order to bypass X. It is long time since I last used X, but if I remember correctly there is a log of global context in its libraries. If you want me I can take a look on that also. Now that we understand that we don't add a new problem to the implementation, can we make a progress?
