that will participate in dnd. Or just assume client is not
participating until we receive an accept request.
- Selection/copy+paste
- Similar to dnd, create a selection object for a device to offer
selection data:
selection = shell.create(input_device)
Requests:
- selection.offer(type)
- selection.activate(time)
- selection.destroy()
Events:
- selection.finish(type, fd)
- selection.discard() /* somebody else took the selection */
- Notes: no window owner, which seems to be mostly there as a way
to identify the client and to allow None (instead of a release
request). Possibly also to make the selection go away
automatically when the window with the contents go away, or
possibly as a way for the source to distinguish between multiple
selections. Toolkits generally just create a dummy-toplevel for
selections though.
- Per-device selection. The selection is per device. Different
keyboards copy and paste to different selections.
- Selection offer object. Introduced just before a surface
receives keyboard_focus event or when somebody claims the
selection and on keyboard_focus? That way only keyboard_focus
owner will know the types... limits pasting to the
keyboard_focus surface.
Requests:
- selection_offer.receive(type, fd)
Events:
- selection_offer.offer(type)
- selection_offer.keyboard_focus()
- Selection/copy+paste issues: is it sufficient to only introduce the
selection offer when a client receives kb focus? Or maybe it is
actually a security feature? Clipboard manager in server for
retained selections?
- Pointer image issue:
- A touch input device doesn't have a pointer; indicate that
somehow.
- A direct touch input device (eg touch screen) doesn't have a
pointer; indicate that somehow.
- Cursor themes, tie in with glyph/image cache.
- copy-n-paste, store data in server (only one mime-type available)
or do X style (content mime-type negotiation, but data goes away
when client quits).
- Discard buffer, as in "wayland discarded your buffer, it's no
longer visible, you can stop updating it now.", reattach, as in "oh
hey, I'm about to show your buffer that I threw away, what was it
