The change to remove some information from the wl_output event and instead rely only on xdg_output in wlroots was deliberate as it simplifies the compositor code and might not even make much sense for some types of compositors (e.g. 3D desktop systems). The reason the events now don't fire together is that no information in wl_output actually changed, while the information in xdg_output did. the downstream discussion for this is here https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/1610 I can't really speak for the whole wlroots / sway project, so I added Simon Ser aka "emersion" as CC, who is one of the main developers of sway and wlroots. Personally, I think Xwayland shouldn't attach too much meaning to when these events happen, and if they happen together. They are separate events after all, and should be treated this way. Assuming that this information is always updated at the same time or even re-sending it without a change (e.g. changing the output position in sway doesn't change any information in the wl_output event) just so the events happen together just sounds backwards to me. >> Below I attached a patch that fixes this.
