I think Tvrtko just volunteered for that :-) Maybe addition in the
drm-uapi.rst section would be good that fills out the gaps we have.

Yup, and the compositor is _not_ allowed to call these. Despite that it's
the exact sime struct file - it has to be the same struct file in both
loging and compositor, otherwise logind cannot orchestratet the vt switch
dance for the compositors. Which unlike non-logind vt switching has the
nice property that if a compositor dies/goes rogue, logind can still force
the switch. With vt-only switching you need the sysrq to reset the console
to text and kill the foreground process for the same effect.
