For everyone asking all these, "I thought this or that was supposed to be done," or wondering about how well the new development model is working, I'd like to note that X.org development happens all in the open on the mailing lists and IRC channel. Here is a link the web archives of the xorg mailing list, if you want to see recent discussions: http://freedesktop.org/pipermail/xorg/

I think that means «Fine, but who are going to code it? We're more than busy with our own ideas here, let alone pick up someone else's.»
If you did the coding (or paid the bill for it), it'd probably be included. As a first implementation, at least.

Sounds like you got warnocked. The only thing to do is just keep on them until you get an answer.

Or give up, I suppose. :)
