Dear Earthling.
This thing came flying on our house. The house collapsed because of it.
We took it apart to figure out where it came from. Imagine our surprise when we discovered it was from Earth.
Please take your crap off our house.
Yours,
The Martian.

Given the amount of emails you get from people seeing your name in legal notices, I'm sure if there are actual martians you'll be the first to find out!

That there is a command 'git rebase -i --autosquash' which you can combine with 'git commit --fixup' to do pretty effing advanced history editing.
I only learned about that after more than a decade of using git. Thanks Stefano!

Correct, but
(a) the ends do not justify the means, and
(b) deport first then ask questions is not justice.

Still, if needing extra VRAM may be a reasonable price to pay for some if it means they can move to something more modern without leaving their UI behind.

These kinds of issues are why I said "works" rather than the plain unquoted variant of that word 😉

Yes, that's what I mean.
Would be awesome because suddenly every window manager "works" with Wayland.
Probably not a good idea though because everything will be very confused.

To put it otherwise.
I think what I want is a Wayland compositor that doesn't provide a UI, but that instead provides some sort of compatibility layer so you can hook up a window manager to do the actual UI work.

Not quite.
These are all 'I have a native Wayland application that I want to run in my X11 session'. That's a cool thing, but not what I want to do.
I want to *run* a Wayland environment. Everything should be Wayland, with standard fallback to the XWayland thing for stuff that isn't supported yet.
Except that I just want the UI to be a window manager that expects X11.

My understanding of Wayback was that it is a way to provide an X11 implementation that uses the Wayland backend, rather than a way to shoehorn the Wayland frontend under an X11 window manager, which is what I'm suggesting.
Of course my understanding can be wrong, in which case a link to more information would be welcomed by a promise for your favourite beverage at my cost if you look for me at the next FOSDEM 😉

This, but then awesomewm.
I think a more globally useful approach would be to write something that implements the part of an X11 server that the window manager talks to, but that looks like Wayland to the applications. This way, people who really don't want to migrate away from their X11-only environment can keep using it and still use Wayland.
This is probably naive and not possible, but meh, one can dream.

Welcome to the world of conflicting bureaucratic requirements. When I did paperwork to move to South Africa, the South African government wanted me to do something (produce a certified copy of my passport) that the Belgian government declared illegal (you're not allowed to make any copies of any identity documents, not even your own)
The solution was to get a lawyer to help me find my way out. I'd suggest you might need to do the same.

I will scroll through 100+ items in an Internet search looking for written instructions before I'll ever even consider watching a 1-minute instructional video.
