<description summary="Protocol for exporting xdg surface handles">
This protocol specifies a way for making it possible to reference a surface
of a different client. With such a reference, a client can, by using the
interfaces provided by this protocol, manipulate the relationship between
its own surfaces and the surface of some other client. For example, stack
some of its own surface above the other clients surface.
In order for a client A to get a reference of a surface of client B, client
B must first export its surface using xdg_exporter.export. Upon doing this,
client B will receive a handle (a unique string) that it may share with
client A in some way (for example D-Bus). After client A has received the
handle from client B, it may use xdg_importer.import to create a reference
to the surface client B just exported. See the corresponding requests for
details.
A possible use case for this is out-of-process dialogs. For example when a
sandboxed client without file system access needs the user to select a file
on the file system, given sandbox environment support, it can export its
surface, passing the exported surface handle to an unsandboxed process that
can show a file browser dialog and stack it above the sandboxed client's
surface.
Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and backward
incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes may be added
together with the corresponding interface version bump. Backward
incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in the protocol
and interface names and resetting the interface version. Once the protocol
is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the version number in the
protocol and interface names are removed and the interface version number is
reset.

A surface may be exported multiple times, and each exported handle may
be used to create a xdg_imported multiple times. Only xdg_surface
