Go for it. The X11 code needs to be separated a bit better
from the rest of the code, but it's not too bad (it was completely
separate once). Please feel free to contact me if you get even
just a little stuck or need help getting your bearings.
I would never dream of dropping the X support though.
I run acme all the time over ssh -X -C and it is fantastic.
