:) Funny ;-) So we want another windows where communication on quite deep
level of the system is associated with windows and hells like this to
discover basic security design problems? :) No. kernel is about the core
of the system, 'window' and likes are user space stuffs, kernel is NOTHING
to do with windows and likes. However it would be nice, if XFree used
framebuffer of the kernel beause eg switching between X and console terminals
are not always dead-lock free and other problems can arise as well ...
