True, but I expect that if client-side decorations won't happen in KDE,
they won't happen in GNOME as well, as we don't want another
incompatibility, plus all the code duplication in Gtk, Mutter, Qt and
whatnot.
Nobody complained last time I raised this point in gnome-shell-list, so
I understood that the GNOME community was not against keeping
server-side windows.
Of course, there is still plenty of time for discussions, but after a
BOF where this was the most prominent issue, and after reaching
consensus even with the one wayland dev present, who was original in
favour of CSD, I considered it closed.
