Although I can't understand your fear completely,
I write under my understanding.

The API inside X servers is not related.
The component technologies have to be changed to some extent for 
realizing interoperability.

The application developers may have to change the code a little.
But, almost all change will be limitted in the component technologies.

You mean embedded UI?

If so, there is XEMBED Protocol Specification.
But, I heard that it is very limited.
Perhaps, we have to discuss about embedded UI specification.

It is quite interesting.
