Description

@flibitijibibo

For the most part this is a compositor thing, but SDL does play a small role in this. I discovered a mention of us while looking at Plasma's Wayland showstoppers:

https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/wikis/Restarting

Since it looks like some kind of changes need to be made in SDL, we should have it in our records, so here it is. There's a patchset here but it's pretty old...

... we should coordinate with them as work on compositor restarts continues. I'm still stuck in other work right now so this is not on my TODO at all.
