I've heard talk of adding X11, what's the status of this @andrewchambers?

@sogaiu had some wip packages, though we need to design a better system for handling complicated dependencies. This would be something like nixos' propagated inputs, I think this would make x11 eaiser to package..

Another path forward would be to focus on wayland, though I'm not sure about this.

I don't have a specific timeline for when this will happen, but I hope to keep working at it once my bupstash project is online.
