The currently shipped protocol is actually 1.0 if you look at the
XResproto.h - the 1.1 in git was solely packaging cleanups and probably
should have been called 1.0.3.   Since we made that mistake, it makes
sense for the new version to be 1.2, but the docs should still define 1.0
(and probably mention that 1.1 was the same as 1.0).

A completely random thought: should device grabs be somehow exposed as well
so it's easier to write a client to see who grabbed your mouse and failed to
release it?   (Perhaps as a resource with a made-up XID?)
