Wayland might be a cleaner api layer to integrate into the windows display subsystems.

Or we could use X11 right now with one of the several existing X11 display servers that work on Windows :-)

headless, you're still stuck with Windows Explorer as a window manager.

I don't use a particularly fancy WM/DE under Linux but it's the little things such as middle click paste, and window operations such as maximize horizontal/vertical (by using the middle and right mouse buttons) that I miss.
