I don't really know what to do with this final claim. I like the idea, and it makes sense. Finally, it will solve this issue and potentially future ones as well. Is there any chance it could be implemented or is it a crazy idea? _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
