Review of attachment 299282:

If the point of the refactoring is to get to a clean design, there are elements
of this patch that feel off to me

 MetaCursorSprite *

meta_foo_new() should create a MetaFoo, not a MetaFoo or a subclass. This is
something like meta_create_cursor_sprite().

Hmm, I think this reflects confusion whether MetaCursorSprite is a frontend or
a backend object. If it's genuinely a "frontend" object, then when creating it
we should always know what protocol we are creating it for. And
meta_cursor_sprite_from_theme() would be a third subclass independent of the
backend.

Obviously every transformation of frontend to backend isn't going to be
possible - e.g., creating an X cursor for a Wayland surface - but I don't think
that's a big problem - you just need to have the code somewhere that knows what
can be transformed to what.

This doesn't make sense to me - this *has* to be a MetaCursorSpriteWayland, so
just create one.
