I meant with x11-port that it renders wanted page to x window given to it, not that it uses different toolkits to render page. So I wasn't meant to replace cairo rendering, I don't even have enough skills for that. Just trying to remove need for gtk (or any other widget toolkits) on Linux.
Is this meant to be a hobby task or do you think that there is an actual need for a purely X11 based port? If it is serious why not put your effort toward creating a plain cairo API (including exposing RenderTheme somehow)? This can be used with X11, directFB, pure images....

This is purely a hobby task, and I maybe use it in my own projects. What do you mean with plain cairo API? I meant that I make this port so, that it includes these normal link- clicking, clipboard etc. actions implemented, but API user have to make scrollbars, context menus and that kind of things itself.
