We did that a number of years ago.  This is not the first X.Org package to
require meson - the Xwayland, libxcvt, libpciaccess, intel-gpu-tools, and
xisxwayland packages all do as well and the number is slowly increasing over
time.  (And of course, the Mesa & pixman packages that our X servers depend on,
and many packages from GNOME and other projects have also already done so.)

OS'es that don't ship python will have to build & install that package before
building X.Org packages.
