Somewhat shocking how much simpler this is, isn't it? We no longer need to wrap the screen or GC or Picture, because damage does it for us, which is doubly great since the old shadowfb code didn't wrap _enough_ things (border updates and Render glyphs, at least). The only real difference now between this and shadow is a) shadow will let you track arbitrary pixmaps, and b) shadow's update hook runs off the BlockHandler whereas shadowfb is immediate.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
