Hi Simon, others,
Thanks to those involved so far in shepherding this side of the issue
along. And also for poking me (repeatedly!) to reply.

between X and non-X applications under Wayland (presently filed against firefox
but I think it probably belongs somewhere else).

Thanks for taking the time to file this, I had been meaning to in the
week leading up to Easter but I was unable to get much computer time.
