Reasonable.  I assume that when I switch, the windows in the other
window system continue working and don't block?  (Currently in share-mode
for instance, you can hang your system completely if an X program starts
dumping output into a DM pad while it's doing X stuff.)  

Also, I asked this earlier but didn't get a response.  Is cut and paste
between the DM and X still supported?

How do you configure the hot key?

If I use xdm to log in, do I have to do a separate login into the DM
display?

(Sorry about all the questions.  I'm just trying to decide whether it's
worth upgrading to 10.3)

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
