This way we are sure the compositor is aware of a surface when we
forward a request for said surface.

Instead we store the buffer move and just use it when the signal is
fired.

libweston-desktop is an abstraction library for compositors wanting to
support desktop-like shells.
The API is designed from xdg_shell features, as it will eventually be
the recommended shell for modern applications to use.
In the future, adding new shell protocols support will be easier, as
limited to libweston-desktop.
The library versioning is the same as libweston. If one of them break
ABI compatibility, the other will too.
The compositor will only ever see toplevel surfaces (“windows”), with
all the other being internal implementation details.
Thus, popups and associated grabs are handled entirely in
libweston-desktop.
Xwayland special surfaces (override-redirect) are special-cased to a
dedicated layer, as the compositor should not know about them.
All the shell error checking is taken care of too, as well as some
specification rules (e.g. sizes constraint for maximized and fullscreen
surfaces).
All the compositor has to do is define a few callbacks in the interface
struct, and manage toplevel surfaces.
