YES!,the current VM was devised on 90's, maybe its time to alter it a bit now..
Esteban, in your opinion would this be feasible, in decent amount of time? Moving Display to a separate plugin.
Yet remains a question, how would the "UI-pluggable VM" talk with the headless vm. I will implement a proof of concept, using some kind of IPC (for the MAc), so we can measure the responsiveness of such scheme.
.. and probably while inventing this new wheel, you can read about X server design, which having such architecture for years. :) But we need that wheel for sure, even if we need to reinvent it :)
If this is going to end up re-inventing X, why not just use X? And I don't mean re-implementing X either, but using someone else's hard work. frank
