Input and mode configuration in system compositor

[Léo Gillot-Lamure]

Hi.

>From what I understand, there are plans for a system compositor laying
between the kernel and the user compositor, enabling things such as
fancy Fast User Switching and making it easier to create new
WMs/compositors as they would only need to speak wayland protocol on
each side instead of speaking drm+evdev+wayland.
Thus it will be the system compositor that will choose the screen mode
and that will do the translation evdev->wayland input event, using
libxkbcommon and a specific keymap.
The problem is that the screen mode and the keymap are user settings,
not system settings. What are the plans to manage that ?
