Thanks for giving me another reason not to upgrade beyond 10.9! I too do lots of things under X11 because it typically isn't slower and usually reduces memory overhead for some reason. >At times, I wonder how hard it would be to change MacPorts' "vnc" port to >start compiling the VNC/X11 server. (Right now it only compiles the You'd lose the rootless mode where X11 windows are mixed with native windows, as well as multihead support, right? There may be another approach. A few years back I asked Jeremy H. what he thought of an interest for having Wayland on Mac. If I understood his answer correctly it could also be an answer to the current X11 problems because it should allow to run a standard X11-on-Wayland layer. I don't have enough experience with Wayland to know how well those layers work, but I'd assume them to be rather crucial for the new platform to get acceptance.
