I admit I didn't read the whole thread...

I just wanted to point out the following:
- XCB (http://xcb.freedesktop.org/) - aims to replace Xlib
- Wayland (http://wayland.freedesktop.org/) - aims to replace the X server

A quick look at the source code shows that you are targeting the X 
server, which might not be the best idea.

Please ignore my post, if the above is well known and has already been 
discussed.
