--- Comment #2 from Michael Catanzaro <[email protected]> ---
It's important to also consider some limit on the number of simultaneous data
requests. I previously discovered a file descriptor denial of service against
GTK+ by calling wl_data_offer::receive thousands of times in a loop in response
to receiving wl_data_device::drag_enter. Nowadays GTK+ is careful to allow only
one request at a time, avoiding this issue, but it's not clear from the
documentation if this is appropriate or not, as other clients may reasonably
expect to be able to call wl_data_offer::receive multiple times in a row.
