<pre>Hi.
Right now, weston-launch is only hard coded to launch weston.
I would really find an option to specify a path to another binary, with
something such as weston-launch -b qtcompositor.
As there are other non weston compositors out there, not all of them ship with
an equivilent of weston-launch that changes permissions as far as I'm aware.
Without much luck, I tried making a patch myself...
