Who decides such changes ? AFAIK the Xorg arch board or the Xorg
directory are allowed to make such a drastic change or approve it unless
it goes through a bug.
BTW: I am the XRX maintainer and I doubt all the non-Debian platforms
are that happy that you disabled xterm in the default build.

The Xorg config you ahev changed is for ALL people and NOT only for YOU.
