The problem here is that a lot of stuff X does relies on horribly unsafe (mis)features of X. And of course wayland had to break compatibility with those things.

If the user wants to do X which involves increased danger to the user giving users a way to tell the system that app X has the privilege of doing X but not allowing all applications to do X is potentially viable but telling users you don't need to do X anymore is a much harder sale.

It needn't be a prompt users will quickly be prompted to click yes to it could easily be an option in settings or at communicated at install time.
