An xwayland surface corresponds to a override-redirect window under X, which is typically a menu or a popup window. They typically appear with a keyboard and mouse grab and by nature of being override-redirect these window can appear anywhere on screen and in the stack. We need to resort to heuristics to decide where to place the override-redirect in our surface stack, and for now we'll just put it on top of everything. That's going to be correct for almost all cases of clicking to open a menu, but we can revisit and refine if we run into a case that needs better handling. |

Weston Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a useful compositor in its own right. Weston has various backends that lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as under X11. Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more complete clients and a simplistic toolkit. There is also a quite capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop shell. Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window manager. Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for buiding weston and its dependencies.
