It's 2016: we have Unicode copyright codepoints.

Where did we land on capitalisation rules for protocol elements? I forget.

Doesn't the client know it's being dragged most of the time anyway,
due to wl_shell::drag and friends?

These are not great descriptions, honestly. Is the surface required to
have a particular role (e.g. toplevel)?

What units does the timestamp use? What about reusing the
relative-pointer from Jonas?

You may want to make it clear here that this does not relate to drag & drop.
