I would like to point out that currently, it appears that in the eyes
of the average user (like me?), startx does not produce acceptable
results, as was just discussed here:
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-02/msg00165.html
so making startxwin.bat a wrapper around startx would potentially
create a problem for many users, who, mind you, were already forced to
waste some time in finding a workaround to the unfortunate fact that
startx stopped working after "up" grade to xorg :(
