As far as I know, there is no randr equivalent model in opengl (even opengl egl).
If they target opengl only, the khronos group (the guys which are now defining opengl) have to improve the opengl APIs in order to include at least the services randr provides.
If the opengl APIs stay out of the randr addressed issues and xorg folks still pushes hard towards opengl, we will end with a xorg server reduced to only opengl/glx and randr.

Of course remember that the terminal situation you propose (and I agree that could occur) need not be terminal. There could be some folding together at some point afterwards.
