Keeping these specific LG changes in a separate branch will make it
more difficult for projects like Croquet and Enlightenment to experiment
with my changes and determine for themselves whether they need them or
not. They will be faced with the same code-merging headaches that I am
today.
If we can keep these changes in the Xorg head but ifdef them that would
be better. Remember that we have sufficiently picked apart my original
design so that much of the functionality it required will be mainstream
in the server, leaving only a small number of areas which need ifdefs.
