Okay I have two main worries with this project, a) I'm a lousy mentor, between timezones and workload I'm not sure I can commit to spending much time on this, but hey maybe I can make myself, if you only ask questions I know! b) I think the project as-is is too big a target, I think I'd probably aim for something a bit lower, maybe just getting shattered rendering in a multi-head Xephyr, so you'd have the impedance layer and two Xephyr GPU screens, and you'd run a bunch of tests like xts and rendertest over the shattered rendering as a final goal. Polishing the impedance layer would be a major start, also things like how GLX or DRI might work should be considered but along with Xinerama I'd put these as a bit of stretch goal, as I expect it will take a fair bit of time to get up to speed, I spent at least 2-3 SoC equivalent man hours on this, and I only got it some of the way.
