The biggest hurdle is getting shit past the GNOME developers. Wayland could implement a protocol that cures leukemia, and they'd still raise a stink about use-cases because it doesn't touch other types of cancer.

Doesn't need a protocol, just compositor support. Unless you want windows to be aware of being rendered at an angle, that is.

Also I do wonder how broken that stuff is under X as the WM protocols that I remember definitely assumed axis-aligned monitor and windows.
