SUMMARY
The compositor currently does not support the `wlr-virtual-pointer-unstable-v1`
and `wlr-screencopy-unstable-v1` protocols. As a Wayland compositor, I expect
KWin to support these protocols.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Try to use any feature which relies on either the
`wlr-virtual-pointer-unstable-v1` or `wlr-screencopy-unstable-v1` protocols.
2. There is no step 2.
OBSERVED RESULT
Lack of support for `wlr-virtual-pointer-unstable-v1` and
`wlr-screencopy-unstable-v1`
EXPECTED RESULT
Support for `wlr-virtual-pointer-unstable-v1` and `wlr-screencopy-unstable-v1`
