+  <description summary="Wayland protocol for graphics tablets">
+    This description provides a high-level overview of the interplay between
+    the interfaces defined this protocol. For details, see the protocol
+    specification.
+
+    More than one tablet may exist, and device-specifics matter. Tablets are
+    not represented by a single virtual device like wl_pointer. A client
+    binds to the tablet manager object which is just a proxy object. From
+    that, the client requests wp_tablet_manager.get_tablet_seat(wl_seat)
+    and that returns the actual interface that has all the tablets. With
+    this indirection, we can avoid merging wp_tablet into the actual wayland
+    protocol, a long-term benefit.
+
+    The wp_tablet_seat sends a "tablet added" for each tablet connected.
+    That event is followed by descriptive events about the hardware;
+    currently that includes events for name, vid/pid and
+    a wp_tablet.path event that describes a local path. This path can be
+    used to uniquely identify a tablet, or get more information through
+    libwacom.  Emulated or nested tablets can skip any of those, e.g. a
+    virtual tablet may not have a vid/pid. The sequence of descriptive
+    events is terminated by a wp_tablet.done event to signal that a client
+    may now finalize any initialization for that tablet.
+
+    Events from tablets require a tool in proximity. Tools are also managed
+    by the tablet seat, a "tool added" is sent whenever a tool is new to
+    the compositor. That event is followed by a number of descriptive events
+    about the hardware; currently that includes capabilities, serial id,
+    hardware serial and tool type. Similar to the tablet interface, a
+    wp_tablet_tool.done event is sent to terminate that initial sequence.
+
+    Any event from a tool happens on the wp_tablet_tool interface. When the
+    tool gets into proximity of the tablet, a proximity_in event is sent on
+    the wp_tablet_tool interface, listing the tablet and the surface. That
+    event is followed by a motion event with the coordinates. After that,
+    it's the usual motion, axis, button, etc. events.
+    The protocol's serialisation means events are grouped by by
+    wp_tablet_tool.frame events.
+
+    Two special events (that don't exist in X) are down and up. They signal
+    "tip touching the surface". For tablets without real proximity
+    detection, the sequence is: proximity_in, motion, down, frame.
+
+    When the tool leaves proximity, a proximity_out event is sent. If any
+    button is still down, a button release event is sent before this
+    proximity event. These button events are sent in the same frame as the
+    proximity event to signal to the client that the buttons were held when
+    the tool left proximity.
+
+    If the tool moves out of the surface but stays in proximity (i.e.
+    between windows), compositor-specific grab policies apply. This usually
+    means that the proximity-out is delayed until all buttons are released.
+
+    Moving a tool physically from one tablet to the other has no real effect
+    on the protocol, since we already have the tool object from the "tool
+    added" event. All the information is already there and the proximity
+    events on both tablets is all a client needs to reconstruct what
+    happened.
+
+    Some extra axes are normalized, i.e. the client knows the range as
+    specified in the protocol (e.g. [0, 65535]), the granularity however is
+    unknown. The current normalized axes are pressure, distance, and slider.
+
+    Other extra axes are in physical units as specified in the protocol.
+    The current extra axes with physical units are tilt, rotation and
+    wheel rotation.
+
+    Since tablets work independently of the pointer controlled by the mouse,
+    the focus handling is independent too and controlled by proximity.
+    The wp_tablet_tool.set_cursor request sets a tool-specific cursor.
+    This cursor surface may be the same as the mouse cursor, and it may be
+    the same across tools but it is possible to be more fine-grained. For
+    example, a client may set different cursors for the pen and eraser.
+
+    Tools are generally independent of tablets and it is
+    compositor-specific policy when a tool can removed. Common approaches
+    will likely include some form of removing a tool when all tablets the
+    tool was used on is removed.
+
+    Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
+    backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes
+    may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump.
+    Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in
+    the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version.
+    Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the
+    version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the
+    interface version number is reset.

+      object stays valid until the client destroys it; the compositor
+      reuses the wp_tablet_tool object to indicate that the object's
+      respective physical tool has come into proximity of a tablet again.
+      A client must not call wp_tablet_tool.destroy until it receives a
+      wp_tablet_tool.removed event.
+
+      A wp_tablet_tool object's relation to a physical tool depends on the
+      tablet's ability to report serial numbers. If the tablet supports
+      this capability, then the object represents a specific physical tool
+      and can be identified even when used on multiple tablets.
+
+      A tablet tool has a number of static characteristics, e.g. tool type,
+      hardware_serial and capabilities. These capabilities are sent in an
+      event sequence after the wp_tablet_seat.tool_added event before any
+      actual events from this tool. This initial event sequence is
+      terminated by a wp_tablet_tool.done event.
+
+      Tablet tool events are grouped by wp_tablet_tool.frame events.
+      Any events received before a wp_tablet_tool.frame event should be
+      considered part of the same hardware state change.

+	is the current pointer surface. If there was a previous surface set
+	with this request it is replaced. If surface is NULL, the cursor
+	image is hidden.
+
+	The parameters hotspot_x and hotspot_y define the position of the
+	pointer surface relative to the pointer location. Its top-left corner
+	is always at (x, y) - (hotspot_x, hotspot_y), where (x, y) are the
+	coordinates of the pointer location, in surface local coordinates.
+
+	On surface.attach requests to the pointer surface, hotspot_x and
+	hotspot_y are decremented by the x and y parameters passed to the
+	request. Attach must be confirmed by wl_surface.commit as usual.
+
+	The hotspot can also be updated by passing the currently set pointer
+	surface to this request with new values for hotspot_x and hotspot_y.
+
+	The current and pending input regions of the wl_surface are cleared,
+	and wl_surface.set_input_region is ignored until the wl_surface is no
+	longer used as the cursor. When the use as a cursor ends, the current
+	and pending input regions become undefined, and the wl_surface is
+	unmapped.
+
+	This request gives the surface the role of a cursor. The role
+	assigned by this request is the same as assigned by
+	wl_pointer.set_cursor meaning the same surface can be
+	used both as a wl_pointer cursor and a wp_tablet cursor. If the
+	surface already has another role, it raises a protocol error
+	The surface may be used on multiple tablets and across multiple

+	Sent whenever the wheel on the tool emits an event. This event
+	contains two values for the same axis change. The degrees value is
+	in 0.01 of a degree in the same orientation as the
+	wl_pointer.vertical_scroll axis. The clicks value is in discrete
+	logical clicks of the mouse wheel. This value may be zero if the
+	movement of the wheel was less than one logical click.
+
+	Clients should choose either value and avoid mixing degrees and
+	clicks. The compositor may accumulate values smaller than a logical
+	click and emulate click events when a certain threshold is met.
+	Thus, wl_tablet_tool.wheel events with non-zero clicks values may
+	have different degrees values.
