I probably should have worded that more carefully.

As far as I know, the protocol layer is finished. I said "most"
because we will very probably find at least one small omission (or
other bug[1]) in the protocol description while working on the libxcb
implementation. The XKEYBOARD extension is fairly large, and we
haven't tested the protocol description thoroughly yet (in part due to
lack of libxcb support).
