+ <description summary="create surfaces that are layers of the desktop">
+ Clients can use this interface to assign the surface_layer role to
+ wl_surfaces. Such surfaces are assigned to a "layer" of the output and
+ rendered with a defined z-depth respective to each other. They may also be
+ anchored to the edges and corners of a screen and specify input handling
+ semantics. This interface should be suitable for the implementation of
+ many desktop shell components, and a broad number of other applications
+ that interact with the desktop.
