You can't have security on linux without the kernel being secure: that means PaX/Grsec: which we had in 2001, but do NOT have anymore.
Any wayland isolation of windows etc does nothing when the kernel is swiss cheeze. Since none of the 9000 linux copyright holding programmers will sue to actually enforce their copyright against violators such as grsecurity.
