Looking even more into it, there's really no need for WaylandConfig to be 
static, could be just member of the WaylandBackend (as long as you have a way 
to retrieve the pointer from wherever in code you need to).

There is no need for your backend to use the same lousy architecture we have in 
XRandR and which has been around since day one (XRandR backend was originally 
very C-ish, with everything being static and global).
