I think the idea is pretty good, simply highlighting some bits.

What you've outlined in this patch has been in practise for many years:
 a) undocumented, applicable to most xorg projects [1]
 b) documented, mesa

IMHO having this explicitly documented and others
(wayland/weston/wayland-protocols and xserver repos) following suite
is a big plus.
