If you really care about this, come up with a scheme within the framework that works instead of complaining that the framework does not support what you want to do. Also, see Nvidia being stuck on GBM/EGL issues for the longest time. Being stubborn about it does not help the bigger picture.

Just because everyone else does it a certain way, does not necessarily mean that way is desirable. Windows and MacOS develop their OSes as closed source software; should XOrg and Wayland follow that model instead?

There is usually a sound middle ground but some features are just not feasible to keep. Like how AmigaOS had zero memory protection and that allowed speed at the cost of security. Should we reimplement that feature too? After all, a lot of programs depended on that feature back in the day...
