Yes. ;)

Also, while I do believe in keeping the X server relatively simple and 
not heaping extension after extension on it, with more information from 
nakee, I think, if it's something x.org is putting forward (MAS), and 
it's supposedly going into a future X11 revision (i.e., X's X), then 
hey, it will have to go in, or this will no longer be an up-to-date X.

Nevertheless I see the other side too, that this is just more cruft... 
As I said to the person who suggested this, yes, I think it's cruft, but 
if this is the way xouvert is going, so be it... It's MIT-licensed, of 
course anyone who doesn't like the new direction can fork the code, 
although I would hate to see either someone leaving or someone forking 
the code over this.

I say, wtf, I'll go with it.  Not to mention, having MAS will probably 
prove useful to a certain project I have in the works... :)

-uso.
