If X has an equivalent of glXSwapBuffers, and we can make it swap w/o tearing, then yes. But at this point that's not possible. And in fact even with a GL compositor it's not possible in a reliable way on Intel; we don't implement a reliable buffer swap, and waiting for vblank in the client is subject to scheduling hiccups, so isn't really suitable.
