It would certainly make sense, the question is whether users would want
that.  One reason to use the experimental version of nouveau is that you
want or need a newer kernel than in squeeze, and this does not
necessarily mean that you want a newer X server as well.

However, as soon as libdrm 2.4.23 gets released (which should happen by
the end of year, along with xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.14), I will
prepare a new nouveau snapshot, and current git already requires X
server 1.8 or later.

Yeah, I've been using it myself for several weeks.
