Ok will look into it in the next revision.

This would not serve the purpose. The purpose here is to expose the supported list to the user so that user can have this ahead and check for the modifier/format before sending the flip. This would avoid async flip failures due to unsupported modifier/format.

This approach has been acknowledged from the userspace which can be located @ https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/4063
