Any such development would need to occur in a branch that could
eventually be merged back in if it proves stable, useful, well
modularized, and actively maintained. If not, I'll just forget that
anyone ever talked about doing it in the first place. That's why it
needs to move off list, even if it ends up being essentially a feature
of Cygwin/XFree86 rather than a seperate program/library.

to be confusion between the Cygwin/XFree86 NativeGDI engine and any
foogdi project.
Consider instead something like the following:
XShell
XExplorer
Something more along those lines would help to differentiate your
project from Cygwin/XFree86.
I don't see why this has to be seperate from the Cygwin/XFree
project? It seems to me that they are proposing more of an
extension/addon then replacing the server itself. Do you have some
objection to what is being proposed?
Cheers,
Nicholas
