I do and FTR: I don't want the cygwin Xorg server to be a dependency to all programs that might use X because that would pull in a lot of packages that I have no use for on most systems. You might "recommend" companion packages that are typically needed to be combined with a specific selected package when installed in an isolated environment, but please not a dependency. It is perfectly OK to install X applications onto a machine that doesn't have X installed. You don't need a server there, nor do you need an xinit start script or anything else besides the actual application and a handful of DLL.
