Better - yes!

I guess the dix parts relate to standardized behaviors (i.e.
enabled/disabled devices), while the
DDX part is more implementation-specific. As long as the distribution is
along those lines, it doesn't sound too bad to me.

Just because there's a lot of functions xf86Post*()
which do post events.
