Please don't make it ask.

When having an interactive port, let it ask, but then you need to reactivate the display based configure script, where you can choose the drivers you want to compile in ... But currently the configure script is disabled, since I didn't had time to update the driver selection... There you could easily ask, if user wants X11 support ...
