Have you ever considered using a display-device-sharing & input-device
multiplexing application, also known as a windowing server or compositor?
Let me tell you how our discussion went about two years ago inside the Qt team
(paraphrasing):
- QWS had a windowing server, QPA doesn't have one
- we need one for QPA
- should we use QWS's protocol or should we have something different?
- QWS was raster, so we need something different
- do we invent our own or is there something that we could use?
- there's Wayland...
