Hi Simon Ser,
Thanks for your comments.
I am also not sure about whether the protocol belongs here or not, and
that's why I had first proposed the same in weston, along with the
implementation and the client application -
Merge request:
_https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/weston/merge_requests/48_
But I do think, its a good point to start the discussion.
Pekka, Daniel, I think we had some discussion about it in IRC as to
wayland-extension. Does it make sense to have this in wayland-protocols?
Regards,
Ankit

Hi,
Thanks for your patch. However, I don't think it belongs to wayland-protocols.
wayland-protocols isn't designed for all common Wayland protocols. For instance,
the IVI shell isn't there, and has a similar use-case (although not limited to
closed systems). Also some other protocols like layer-shell have been rejected.
I think a Weston patch in protocols/ would be better suited. This would allow
protocol consumers to share the protocol while not including it in a repository
where it won't be used because a large majority of wayland-protocols users don't
have closed systems.
That said, wayland-protocols' scope is ill-defined, so it's not like it's easy
to decide whether it belongs here or not.
Thanks,
