> Imagine that you have to patch and rebuild X.Org every time you want to look at Gnome/KDE/XFCE/LXDE/IceWM/FluxBox/OpenBox/etc. That's what you're going to get with wayland. That's the difference.
What?
I don't think this is how things work. Wayland is just the protocol, your compositor/WM has all the logic in it just the same as it is today. If your WM wants some window to be special such as a taskbar or whatever then that's its prerogative. There will be many different window managers surely, just as there is today, I'm not sure what this talk of patching and rebuilding has to do with anything...
