The more I read about Wayland, the more it sounds like one of those "I wrote a Twitter clone in a weekend" projects which totally ignores the long-tail of features that many X11 users actually rely on.

And then as time goes on, those features actually do need to be implemented but because they weren't part of the core design, they get poorly integrated with yet another dependency on some external thing.
