Being a non-programmer I'm confident there's little likelihood I'd be
competent to attempt such an endeavor. Nevertheless, my complaints are not
unique to Fedora. Other distros have the same problem. Before announcement
that SaX2 was to be dropped from the openSUSE 11.3 development tree,
maintenance takeover was invited, and no one stepped up.

For the benefit of those few, and there will likely always be some, for whom
automatic isn't, some tool is needed upstream in Xorg, possibly SaX2 or SCD
at least as a starting point. A wider call for a maintainer of SaX2 or SCD or
some equivalent is needed. But how and where?
