+  <description summary="control data devices">
+    This protocol allows a privileged client to control data devices. In
+    particular, the client will be able to manage the current selection and take
+    the role of a clipboard manager.
+
+    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.

+        representation requested and then closes the file descriptor.
+
+        The receiving client reads from the read end of the pipe until EOF and
+        then closes its end, at which point the transfer is complete.

+        This request may happen multiple times for different MIME types.
