And thus marks the last time I attempt to be sassy on my Droid. But as I was saying, the Generic Userspace Configuration Kit. If we're going to add a Session Hotplug Infrastructure Tasklet, which is desktop-agnostic, in order to configure the X server across multiple platforms, you're going to need a Generic Userspace Configuration Kit to talk to the kernel, since that's where the devices live.
Being desktop-aware has a lot of benefits, mostly in the realm of policy control and convenience, and letting the DE configure things is not as bad as, say, having GNOME-specific code in the server.
