Ah, you young whipper-snappers don't know how good you had it with xorg.conf. I remember hand-editing ModeLines in XFree86.conf... And that was an improvement over the old days, where you had to edit the Xserver source code!...
I vaguely remember hearing/reading a quote from the late Steve Jobs, way back when NeXT was a new company, where he referred to the X Window system as "incredibly ornate and baroque". I think he gave it way too much credit. ;P
