They’re still keeping XWayland though. There’s not going to be much change in functionality.
This is just cleaning up some legacy/dead code.

Definitely a good thing. Xwayland has worked quite well for me over the past few months. This also makes sure Wayland and Xwayland get the testing they really need.
