One thing window can't do is let you run two X sessions on different virtual
terminals (say if you want an X session, and your wife wants another).  I
agree that it's kernel bloat, but not everybody has to compile it in.  pcvt
also can emulate those silly HP terminals with the menu of function keys
on the bottom row, which is nice if you want to install patches under HP-UX.
