+	The frame request will take effect on the next wl_surface.commit.
 	The notification will only be posted for one frame unless

+	A server should avoid signalling the frame callbacks if the
+	surface is not visible in any way, e.g. the surface is off-screen,
+	or completely obscured by other opaque surfaces.
+
+	A client can request a frame callback even without an attach,
+	damage, or any other state changes. wl_surface.commit triggers a
+	repaint, so the callback event will arrive after the next output
+	refresh where the surface is visible.
