(In reply to Jan Beich from comment #0)
Just a point of clarification.  The reason behind encouraging use of
modesetting is due to the upstream Xorg team adopting that as their go-forward
driver for Intel i915.  I have also read that work on the xf86-video-intel
driver is also being deprecated.  

So I don't think anyone is "pushing" people in one direction or another, it's
just a realistic assessment of how to best use limited resources that will help
the largest set of users.  I'm sure updates to Intel wouldn't be turned down
IMHO.
