Not really, no. Someone has to be the first, solve his own problems,
and then see if others can leverage the same solution. It is much
harder trying to design something generic when you don't have any
specifics.
Thanks,

Any ideas about this?

There are many other protocols that may require handles to windows. It may make
sense for them to all use the same handle protocol. Of course, all of these
different protocols would require different levels and types of privileges.
For example, a window switcher application would also need a pro

This should probably be a separate protocol from the preview protocol. Is it

What about Wayland Security Modules (libwsm)? In what ways does this fail to

As a side note, there is no such thing

Hi,
I strongly disagree. A huge part of Wayland's reason to exist is that
things like XComp
I think that it would be a good idea to have a standard, cross-compositor
protocol for getting previews/thumbnails of windows, similar to XComposite.
This protocol should be as fast as possible and use as little system
resources as possible. It should probably provide a handle to the native
window
