--- Comment #2 from Rune K. Svendsen <runesvend at gmail.com> ---
Darxus, using /etc/environment is not an option if I want a custom
Weston/Wayland environment since it is system-wide, as far as I can tell.

Exporting, for example, GDK_BACKEND=wayland in /etc/environment will break GTK+
when I run them in Ubunutu+X+Compiz.

If weston-launch didn't clear environment variables, I could launch weston with
a simple script that looks like this:

source wayland-vars.sh
weston-launch

And everything in Weston would "just work". For example GTK+ programs launched
from the panel would use the Wayland GDK backend.
