No, for the same reason this already isn't a problem. If you
glXMakeCurrent an indirect context, the X server does not itself call
glXMakeCurrent. All it does is record the client's binding. Only when
we go do to actual indirect rendering (or mutate context state) does
libglx actually make that context "current". That context is a tuple of
the protocol state and a DRI driver context; it could just as easily be
an EGL context instead of DRI.
