I posted a DRI3 v1.1 patch series which can advertise and also transit
modifiers directly under X11, and have also typed up the support for
Wayland which is working just fine with Weston from git. If you
implement DRIimage v15 to advertise and import modifiers, then you can
transit them for free without a magic-back-channel ioctl. Would that
be enough to convince you to drop this series?

Cheers,
Daniel
