The less that has to be explicitly configured, the better. But this is orthogonal to how a general configuration system should be. If X become 100% auto-configuring, then fine - neither an xorg.conf nor an Elektra directory is needed. Still, other software needs to store system-wide or user-specific parameters.

You can run last version of X.org with empty config file if your software is not too exotic.
