Do you mean 'Support non-root X'? if so some DM's still don't support it.

This is Nvidia's fault. It was hidden from you because sometimes the
packaging for the proprietary Nvidia driver has forced non-rootless
Xorg. I guess that's no longer the case, oh well. Talk to the packager
for the Nvidia driver, or better yet, talk to Nvidia to get them to
support rootless Xorg properly.
As far as I know we don't force non-rootless X.
