            Bug ID: 59983
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: XWayland: XWM can't handle transient windows without
                    parent
          Severity: minor
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: tiago.vignatti at linux.intel.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: weston
           Product: Wayland

Weston crashes because shell is trying to set a transient surface without
having a parent. The real problem though is in XWM which always assign
transient shell type for X override-redirected windows, in particular the ones
that don't have a parent. To fix for this behaviour, we have to introduce a
special shell type for X windows, where X windows are positioned globally and
not depending on their parents for anything.

To reproduce: start Weston with Xwayland support, start gedit then "File" ->
"Open" and press ESC. Weston segfaults with the following backtrace:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
