But we could have had X.org in experimental if we had wanted, or had the force
to do it, or had allowed Daniel to do it or whatever, and given the time it
took from the 4.3.0 upstream release until it was available this would have
been a good idea. But well, i guess the X strike force hadn't had any time
left for that.
