I am not saying that Canonical will lose their position on the desktop, but it will certainly hurt them. And if they do not change the approach, they will diminish in the long run.

Moreover, they clearly don't have plans to release Core 20 for i386, so they will stick with old libraries. And this will be really painful in 5-10 years.

Anyway, my point it that if they decide to retire support for X11 (including XWayland), then all packages will be compiled without X11 support. This means that it wouldn't be enough just to provide X11 packages. All of toolkits and other graphics libraries have to be rebuilt with X11 support. And this is not realistic to be done by community in a PPA repo.

Back in time, there was a program named XWine. It was some kind of WINE manager. Today we have PlayOnLinux that allows us to manage wine version and prefixes. Although it was created with games in mind, it is commonly used for productive software as well.
WineD3D was created mainly because of games, but today it is very important when it comes to run multimedia software or even normal applications because they heavily use DirectWrite these days.

So if there are any problems with i386, they will be resolved by Debian maintainers.
And don't bullsh*t me about QA. We have plenty examples where Ubuntu inherited Debian bugs. That's what their quality control is worth.
