(It also occurs to me after some reflection that most distros install X with
"-nolisten tcp" by default, which makes it a pain to capture X)

The most 'exotic' (mostly obsolete) extensions aren't covered by XCB yet, so
there wouldn't be any dissection to test. :-) But, yeah, pretty much everything
draws via RENDER these days, which makes core-X-only dissection less useful.

I'll see what I can dig up at the office. I should be able to capture a
reasonable variety, although complete coverage isn't likely.
