Question:

Why are such things not being discussed in

Component: xorg
Product: Driver/modesetting

?

Also:

Why was xf86-video-modesetting implemented into xorg-server?

Now that Debian and Ubuntu are using xf86-video-modesetting instead of
xf86-video-intel, it's no longer possible to upgrade the DDX driver without
upgrading xorg-server, since xf86-video-modesetting no longer is a separate
package.

Oibaf has already said that he will not include updates for xorg-server in his
PPA:
