I have been running this since first CFT:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2017-March/019100.html

It had 2 problems known to me these days:

1. Interference with vt (PR/220562)
2. It attached both legacy and evdev drivers to input devices if kernel was
compiled with EVDEV_SUPPORT enabled.

Hopefully, both of them are fixed now.
I never tried modesetting driver and GLAMOR which are claimed to be a major 
improvement of 1.19 version.

> what about enabling EVDEV in HEAD's GENERIC kernel
It can not be enabled by default just now as EVDEV is not reenterable on
breaking to DDB.
I have patches addressing this so if someone is willing to enable EVDEV in
HEAD's GENERIC they can be reviewed/commited.
