The one feature that I really miss in X-Window that Wayland doesn't implement...
Don't laugh or smirk...
"unclutter"
If the mouse stops moving it should disappear after X seconds. Otherwise the desktop has this ugly cursor just sitting there doing nothing.
With the new Wayland cursor protocols is this something that could be implemented now?
Could it already be implemented but is an oversight?
I'm not even disappointed about network transparency.
