I'm no longer maintainer, but probably still the KWin dev with most knowledge
in the code base.

X11 geometry handling was implemented before I started to contribute to KWin.
In all the years I didn't have to touch it. We only added new concepts such as
quick tiling. But the core handling is a code base I basically do not know.
Which shows how good it is: I never had to dig into it. 

None of the developers of that code is active any more. We are talking here
about changing requirements 15 to 20 years after the code was written. We don't
have the hardcore X developers any more. I'm probably the most experienced but
I don't want to work on X any more.
