Hi Gerd,

a fly-by comment here:

The standard operation mode on Wayland indeed is that the client
allocates any pixel buffers. It is not the whole story though.

Server allocated buffers passed to a client also exist:
- core protocol uses this to pass keymaps to clients
- people are not forbidden from writing Wayland extensions that do this
  for whatever reason

The latter server-allocated case could probably be overlooked, but the
keymap case not really. Furthermore, copy&paste and drag&drop protocol
pass pipe file descriptors via Wayland to establish client-to-client
pipes.


Thanks,
pq
