--- Comment #1 from Bryce Harrington <b.harrington at samsung.com> ---
I'm going to claim that the establishment of wayland-protocols resolves this
bug, although I'll admit it didn't fix desktop-shell.xml specifically.

When that package was made, all protocols that were felt to be of general
utility were moved there.  A few protocols, including the desktop-shell.xml
protocol requested in this bug report, were left in weston, either because they
were considered too weston-specific, or because they were not felt to be
something the Wayland developers wished to see adopted externally.

The desktop-shell.xml protocol was renamed weston-desktop-shell.xml to indicate
its specificity to weston.  While there is some functionality included in it
that isn't (yet) in xdg-shell.xml, I believe the feeling is that we'd rather
see necessary protocol functionality added to xdg-shell.xml or separate
protocols in wayland-protocols than to have weston-desktop-shell.xml be more
broadly shared.

So, I would suggest if there are bits of desktop-shell.xml that projects like
Maynard want, please file proposals to expose those specific functions.
