i totally agree with all of your issues......
im thinking that perhaps apple should port the old classic control
panel "launcher" to X11....though, if you use a diffrent WM you can get
a "dock"
you tried using say, gnome, or something, to manage your issue number 4?

So far, so good with x11 beta 3 and 10.2.5; however, I have the
following usability issues:
1) can't add x11 executables to Mac OSX dock.
I've built a few apps, but the dock does not recognize them as
applications. I'd much rather have an x11 'xterm' item on my dock,
then to have to bring X11 to the foreground and do menu 'Applications'
-> 'xterm'
2) I'd like to see an option for 'Always export selected text to
clipboard' so that x11's select-to-copy works as expected between
normal OSX apps. Right now, select-to-copy only works in X11.
3) It would be great to have x11 be more "Mac" aware. Things like
dragging and dropping files onto x11 windows (worked for me in Linux)
don't look like they generate any events at all.
4) It is somewhat annoying that X11 is shown as a single application
in the dock. This makes 'command-tab' impossible for trying to select
something like an xterm, since you can only select your running X11.
ps: can something please be done to bring 'mouse cursor focus' to OSX?
thanks,
josh.
