The idea is that system services get socket or bus activated, so that clients can just connect to them, and if the services are not running yet they would be started and if they are already being starte that the client wouldn't have to know. In the case of X this would mean adding socket activation support to it. This has been discussed many times, and the X folks are open to it. It's probably not useful for the desktop case, but for most emebdded cases it is. Doing socket-activated X isn't even that hard, it's just that somebody has to sit down and hack it up. By doing socket activation for X you not only get rid of any explicit dependencies, but you also get performance wins via the best possible parallelization, and the thing even becomes more robust, too. Porting X to socket activation is just a matter of patching it to use sd_listen_fds() instead of directly binding the listening socket. There's plenty documentation for it, just google for it!
