Yup, but it's easy enough to direct your users on the download page  
to install X11 off the Apple CDs. They're not paying anything for  
Gaphor so they shouldn't whine :) Lots of projects do this, like  
Gimp.app, Inkscape and OpenOffice. Gimp.app even themes its GTK to  
look Cocoa-ish, which is kind of neat.

As I said earlier you might also consider putting together a little  
AppleScript (or PyObjC voodoo) that pops up an error dialog if X11  
fails to launch.
