Weston headless backend - xvfb-run emulation

Hi,

I'm working on Firefox/Wayland port on Fedora and there's a need to run 
Wayland Firefox in headless Wayland session - it's used in build process 
to perform PGO build, it's used for test runs and so. It's generally 
what xvfb-run provides - a headless X11 server which launches a single 
command and quit when the command finishes.

Is that possible with Weston and any of its backend? I haven't found any 
reference how to launch firefox inside weston-headles backend 
automatically so far.

Thanks,
ma.
