> Agreed. I'll only be unhappy with Wayland if major toolkits don't bother to implement remoting

I think that "a proxy pushing giant bitmap" remoting will be eventually available whatever the toolkit used, of course in some case (text) it's quite inefficient compared to XRender glyph cache's remoting..

The only thing I can do is point to the comments in the previous articles that even if you are running Wayland you can still run X on top even if someone doesn't do a connector or other tool that only runs the parts of X that are needed.
