Hello, What's the advantage of that patch?
As far as I understand the patch shifts the burden of finding a free port (or socket path) from the X server to the user. X is in the position to atomically find a free port and grab it whereas an user from outside of the X server will have much harder time achieving that. Of course, controlling what port the X server uses directly by the user can have its advantages but it does not help with finding a free one.
