Could you please post more information on these? I'd be interested in
trying an alternative to X. Of course I suppose that would mean that
NONE of my applications would work though? I'd still be interested in
looking at them anyway.

Perhaps you could do something about it. Write enhancements to X.
Start a requirement spec and find some programmers to help you. Maybe
someone will be able to start a new one from the ground up. The main
problem will be compatibility with the rest of the X applications out
there. I really don't believe another solution would survive unless it
allowed X applications to run somehow. That, I believe, would be the
hardest part about designing a new Graphical system.
