great, thank you. That seems like what I was missing. Though I haven't had the time to try it out yet. What is the reason for switching from wl_shell to xdg_shell? Will xdg_shell become part of libwayland-client or will applications have to depend on weston also? What about for people using another compositor such as Enlightenment? Sorry if these questions have already been answered. Seems strange to me though.
