Enabling the wayland and x11 backends of gtk+ simultaneously appears to be unusable: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672361
Related to the cairo-gl vs. Nvidia proprietary problem: A) Get cairo-gl to only load libGL when an application requests it: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47480 B) Get the Nvidia proprietary driver to reduce memory consumption. I haven't touched this one. All I have found is linux-bugs at nvidia.com mentioned on http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_169.09.html C) Remove the cairo-gl dependency from the wayland backend of GTK+: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47480 D) Add support for versioned provides to the Debian packaging system: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=7330 This bug is 15 years old.

I believe this is all that's necessary for wayland to work with the existing Precise gtk packages. Wayland has one released version, 0.85, which is in the precise archives: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wayland/ I'm told gtk 3.4 is (and will remain) compatable with it. Since gtk 3.4 is apparently already packaged for Precise, all that remains to be able to use some gtk applications via wayland is this build flag.
