This was obviously a joke, but there are some similarities between Wayland and the X12 early discussions. It's absolutely not a 1:1 by any means, but I actually do agree that calling it X12 would have solved many problems.

@BrodieOnLinux oh god it wouldn't, all the things they criticise wayland for would be an even stronger criticism for straying from the holy X path and daring to call it X, and on top of that there would be pressure to preserve some X bullshit.
