OTOH, there are things X provides that Wayland design
prohibits ever
providing.
Is it my understanding that Wayland does not allow remote rendering? Does
this mean that `ssh -X` would no longer be able to open a remote window,
not even a `xterm` session? I thought this was the core funcionality of
any UNIX-like system. Wasn't this one of the reasons why UNIX was created
in the frist place? Have a terminal that connects to a central server?
There is something like XWayland that should resolve this, maybe? Are
major distributions like openSUSE going to switch to Wayland or XWayland?

I know that X11 is still around, but its
development isn't exactly lively anymore.
A mature system needs little "development". OTOH, there are things X provides
that
Wayland design prohibits ever providing. I hope TDE resources never need to be
wasted conforming to Wayland requirements.
