Sure. But that wont cure a fundamental problem with the X11/Xorg infrastructure.

You cannot quickly and switch desktop orientation, resolution and layout (not to mention drivers) seamlessly like on Windows without killing your entire X-session. Killing your entire session. Jeez.

At the root of this problem is an architecture which is lagging on what Microsoft could deliver in Windows 98. You cannot make Windows and reboot-jokes while you have this Achilles-heel dragging your video subsystem. You seriously cannot.

And no new version of Ubuntu can overcome this underlying issue, no matter how much fluff and candy they add elsewhere, as long as they rely on the ancient relic that is X11.

As far as I know, when Google decided to make Android and ChromeOS (a complete failure as far as any metric goes, but still worth mentioning) they decided:

1. to base it on Linux, because that makes sense and

2. not to base it on X11 because they wanted it to be flexible and they wanted their users not be limited by what architects could think of in the 1984.

For end-user Linux to ever become user-friendly Xorg needs a complete architectural overhaul. I cannot see anyone arguing this.

And even if seemingly everyone agrees on this, nobody is pushing forward for it to happen. Make of that what you like.
