Does the PEX standard specify how the PHIGS API and X work together?
Specifically, if you want to use X events for input, could you still
use PHIGS for picking?

The current DEC PHIGS product provides such a method, a pphittest
function to do picking in an PHIGS output-only workstation.  And I've
heard that in IBM's graPHIGS, you can pass an X event to the graPHIGS
widget for picking.

Please tell me that this will be standardized soon.
