This is ideally combined with other protocols. Some example use-cases:

- A client using fullscreen-shell could offer the user a list of outputs
  by name to fullscreen on
- A client using wlroot's new layer-shell protocol (which will be
  submitted for standardization once we finish proving it with our
  implementation) can do something similar
- Xwayland can name the X11 outputs based on their genuine names rather
  than assigning e.g. XWAYLAND0
