I'd rather see DisplayKit (aka Wayland) become a standard platform. I get along with CUPS just fine and it does much more than push files from spool to local printer.

Have you ever had a misfortune of debugging CUPS?
And Wayland is coming nicely, don't worry :)

I know it's coming nicely but it seems as if only Fedora had any interest in it.

Well, usually does most of the development. But other show interest in Wayland, for example: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/meeting/20429/desktop-q-system-compositor/
