Those two items have nothing to do with each other.

That's perfectly fine, and many people do use X11 fullscreen, but that doesn't 
explain at all why you're avoiding using the launchd socket and setting DISPLAY 
manually yourself.

What makes it "awkward" to you?  You shouldn't ever need to think about it.  
launchd sets the environment variable for you, and you should never need to 
bother with it.
