I think this is a good idea.
Doing this would ease protocol review and make it so the implementation
matches the protocol. The extra floating window bits can be added
later anyway, and we'll be able to discuss what's the best way to
implement them.
Btw, we are now using GitLab for wayland-protocols development: feel
free to submit your patch there (and potentially your earlier pending
patches too!).
Thanks,
Simon
