I can imagine this being nice as a fallback that always works. Just like the VESA Xorg driver now.

If this is going to make it easier for developers develop for it, then this is good news. Speaking of things to make development easier, one thing that I've been wondering is that if OpenGL support (as opposed to OpenGL ES) is added to Wayland and Wayland eventually fully replaces X (I realize this may take many years), then would it be easier for developers to develop open source graphics drivers because it would be for Wayland, instead of X?
