I just woke my iMac from sleep and opened another X11 window using the Applications menu - it appeared just fine, but mouse and keyboard input was having no effect on any of the X11 windows. Nothing in the Console logs, I eventually tried Hiding (cmd-H) X11 then reselecting it from the dock, which unjammed whatever was jammed and (at least some of) the pending keyboard/mouse events appeared in the windows.

I will let you know if this happens again/is reproducible.

I think I've seen something similar in the past, because the hiding trick to unjam it I've used successfully before. So this may not be specific to beta5. I do regularly unlock the screen (not wake from sleep, just unlock) and find that only mouse works, no keyboard. That's easily fixed by locking and unlocking a second time, and I don't think it is X11 specific. This was different, the menus worked but not the X11 windows, and other Apps were fine.

I have a network home dir that might be part of triggering these things, if the read from some config file in my home dir is slower than expected so some events gets out of order?

XQuartz 2.7.2 beta5 is out now.  There aren't too many changes, but I've been 
seeing a bunch of reports of the gimp crash, so I wanted to get this out rather 
than sitting on that fix for another week.

* Inkscape and Gimp no longer crash the server
* The installer is now signed
* Executables are now signed with XQuartz's DeveloperID

I expect that the next release will be a release candidate.  The only blocker 
that I'm aware of at this point is addressing some bad scrolling behavior with 
some older mice (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/ticket/562).  This may just 
end up being a preference since the solution will probably be reverting to the 
older behavior which was a gross hack =/
