On ATI hardware (xorg and ATI drivers) xv is limited to 1 head. So if I have a 
laptop and I am using an external monitor at one location and not at another. 
Xv is not a good choice since I have to reconfigure my X server depending on 
what monitor I am using to show xv on. X11 has been the only reasonable 
fallback for me, with the improvements to the gl driver I now have another 
option, which I appreciate.
