Unity8 needs this bug fixing for one simple reason:
Even apps that do display a window "immediately" will get a splash screen of
the wrong size displayed before a window of the correct size appears. This will
be particularly important after bug 1606501 gets fully fixed.
And no, it's not invalid for Xmir to not create a window on start-up in
rootless mode, it is correct behaviour. It's a server and has no windows
until the X client creates one. It's distracting and confusing for
Unity8 to create a black window where there should be no window at all.

Windowless apps are closer thank you think: Xmir -rootless
is one such example while no X apps have started yet.
