Why are there still two different ways to launch X11? Why isn't my  
inappropriate double-clicking on the X11 icon in Dock not  
automatically translated into a launchd action? I mean, there is  
Automator! And there is also the Internet technique on an invisible  
pixel to have access to the user of a web page. This could have been  
extended into launching an invisible, temporary, and very simplistic X  
client that X11 gets launched via launchd? And why wasn't Dock removed  
when it bypasses launchd?
