I see it has been like that for a year. Making xorg suid is
generally considered a bad idea now that we have the ability to run
X in user mode. I have to assume very few people have tried it,
which is why nobody mentioend it until now.
For capturing messages (apart from what is in the X log) I use
commands like:
$startx 2>&1 | tee myxmessages
