I wholeheartedly agree! And if the user prefers a workflow based around saved window configurations, as f'rexample the KiCad community does, I don't think it's the place of display-server developers to decide for them that You Don't Need That. Of course the Wayland devs are free to *make* that choice, as it's their software, but they shouldn't be surprised when their behavior tends to alienate people. > They could have ended up the BSDs of the display server world, a > little niche largely overlooked by the mainstream, and I’m sure that > would not have bothered them one bit. The fact that they knuckled under is a strong argument that it would've.
