We *should* be able to just configure X with the driver to use at that time, we should't have to uninstall something to use a different driver.
You aren't objecting to having to install something to use a different driver.
And what happens to someone with two graphics cards that they want to use simultaneously?
I don't understand the question. There's nothing stopping anyone from doing that, however you'd still need to have the nvidia driver installed if you wanted accelerated support.
