Mind, you need a wl_surface_commit() before that applies. And then,
maybe something else overwrites it immediately after your hack, sending
another set_input_region request.

I really have no idea, but I am quite sure it is a surface configuration
issue outside of weston core.

You could look at the Wayland protocol dump of the client to see how it
sets the surfaces up. Input region should be clipped to the surface
area in weston core, but maybe the surface has transparent areas and a
misplaced input region?

Does that setup even let Weston core handle input focus, or is all that
hijacked to LayerManager or something?
