<enum name="version">
<description summary="latest protocol version">
Use this enum to check the protocol version, and it will be updated
automatically.
The 'current' member of this enum gives the version of the
protocol. Implementations can compare this to the version
they implement using static_assert to ensure the protocol and
implementation versions match.

<description summary="enable use of this unstable version">
Use this request in order to enable use of this interface.
Understand and agree that one is using an unstable interface,
that will likely change in the future, breaking the API.
Negotiate the unstable version of the interface. This
mechanism is in place to ensure client and server agree on the
unstable versions of the protocol that they speak or exit
cleanly if they don't agree. This request will go away once
the xdg-shell protocol is stable.
