At least on a quick glance I cannot find any comment to > that effect. I think the stability rules for IVI layout should be the same as standart weston plugins. We cannot realize some usecases with ivi-shell, which we want to have, e.g: same ivi-surface on many layers/screens. We have to most likely break ABI again to realize these usecases.
