The --enable-systemd-logind change to xorg-server that caused resume from
suspend regressions (and others) has been reverted, and in retrospect it was
a bad idea to take it at that point, but it had appeared as if it wouldn't
cause problems in the case where Xorg was running as root. Oh well, lesson
learned. But the build script has been enhanced to make it easy to build
rootless versions of the xorg-server packages. Just do this:
  ROOTLESSX=YES ./x11.SlackBuild xserver xorg-server
Depending on your GPU, this could work for your use case with no problems.
Also, I've gone ahead and taken a couple of shared library version bumps since
the projects (opencv and poppler) have decent track records as far as not
introducing regressions, and if there are any, we've got time to test and fix.
I'm still avoiding some things that aren't as trusted in that regard, and will
likely continue to do so. :-)

  This is an alternate version of Rust that may be useful for compiling
  software from Mozilla since using the very latest Rust often won't
  compile, or produces an unstable build.

This is a version of Rust that's closer to what Mozilla is recommending for
compiling Firefox, Seamonkey, and Thunderbird.
To see the recommended minimum and maximum versions of Rust that upstream
recommends for Firefox (or for Seamonkey/Thunderbird using the backend from the
same version of Firefox), see this link:
https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/writing-rust-code/update-policy.html
This version of Rust has been compiled with the bundled version of LLVM to
avoid depending on any particular version of LLVM. This may cause a warning
from ldconfig, but that's harmless.
This Rust package will be updated in place to follow the requirements for the
various Mozilla packages in the main tree (for -current), or in /patches (for
a stable release).
