Well actually it could, but that's not the point here.

There is no bug. It looks to me you have a very personal definition of bug and
of how to "solve" them.

Great idea, why don't you file a bug report for  anew port which includes these
two scripts and all the glue needed to install them? Maybe someone would pick
it up (not me, obviously)

The point is that changing Xorg priority is not a bugfix, but a local
workaround that each user can choose to apply locally, and is not something
that we should impose from the official ports.

Personally I don't consider what you describe as a bug or even an annoyance.
But that's me.

This is your opinion, but is against port rules. Any patch included in the
ports tree should also be sent upstream [1] so your proposal of including a
patch that is not good enough to be upstreamed is not acceptable by the ports
rules.

Also not upstreaming patches is a big problem with the ports tree. Differences
with upstream accumulate and we are handling ports here, not forks.

So yes, if upstreeam has a bug, the bug is expected to also exist in the port.
It can be fixed in the port before the upstream but in such a way to be
upstreamed.

Anyway I'm not considering these scripts for inclusion. I would not feel
comfortable committing them. But this will not stop you from writing to the
mailing lists or seeking other committer's interest in them.
