I am a relative newcomer, coming from an Arch Linux background. Rootless Xorg is default over there, but apparently not in FreeBSD. Interestingly, a google search turned up for me that OpenBSD was on of the first *nix's to implement rootless Xorg, even before Arch did. And I'm a little surprised FreeBSD doesn't seem to have it yet. How difficult would it be to make this transition? Thanks!
