X Protocol standards
Base protocol

Assuming something for key, button, motion, focus change, and
enter/leave events
Assuming something for cursors, something for grabs
Something for assigning a key to an owner so there is one thing
handling a given hotkey (passive grabs)
Something equivalent to GetPointerMapping/SetPointerMapping
(left-handed mouse)
Something equivalent to
ForceScreenSaver/GetScreenSaver/SetScreenSaver (screensaver, or timed lock
screen)
Something equivalent to GetPointerControl/ChangePointerControl
(acceleration parameters)
Thumbs up or down on Bells; use a daemon that plays sounds is
probably good
Something equivalent to
GetKeyboardControl/ChangeKeyboardControl (auto-repeat parameters)
Something equivalent to GetGeometry on top-level windows (for
the pager
And don't have it change coordinate system; this is a
race and a pain)
