I propose that weston (or another typical wayland package) ships
something like /usr/share/apport/general-hooks/weston.py (or wayland-
session.py perhaps) which does the appropriate detection, and does
report.setdefault('Tags', '')
report['Tags'] += ' wayland-session'
Does that work for you?

Title:
apport hook to detect wayland sessions
Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
New
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Now that we have an experimental GNOME wayland session in vivid, it
would be somewhat useful for apport to detect if a bug report is from
a wayland session. It probably makes sense for this to be global
since other projects will eventually offer wayland sessions as well.
Not sure on the best place for this to live though in apport or in
wayland packaging or elsewhere?
detecting WAYLAND_DISPLAY env is probably enough to detect a running
session, and there may be a few other useful env variables such as
(GDK/CLUTTER)_BACKEND etc
