Introduction

[outfoxxed]

In this repo I've attempted to create some generic wayland protocols that make common functionality expected/desired in desktop shells available to clients. The intention is to upstream most of these to w-p at some point but I'm hoping to get implementations earlier so we can actually use them, though I'm open to trying to upstream them now instead of keeping them here.

Before starting any implementations I'd like to ask for input on my current drafts if you're interested:
#1 - wlr/ext toplevel association
#2 - foreign toplevel icons
#3 - surface intersection observer / window dodging
#4 - non popup seat grab
#5 - ext-workspace toplevel management
#6 - ext-workspace creation / making ext-workspace usable for dynamic workspaces
#7 - toplevel geometry

Pings: @vaxerski @YaLTeR @Aylur @JakeStanger @vnuxa
Potential interest: @ifreund @johanmalm @ammen99 @Alexays @its-darsh

Apologies for the ping if uninterested.

Interested enough. how can I help?

Just look over the protocols and point out anything you think is bad, missing, too much etc. I'll be writing implementations for Hyprland and Quickshell personally, though the workspace stuff requires an ext-workspace implementation first.

Great. Will start doing so once I get down on my desk...
