concerning b) I didn't want to expose the WaylandPointer as public API.
concerning c) there is an additional feature where that is used: reconnecting 
after a Wayland server crash.

But in both cases: it's difficult to change now without breaking the ABI. There 
are some things I would like to change. E.g. for BlurManger I would like to 
have something like a parent Global and for Blur something like a parent 
Resource. I'm not particular happy with the API.
