Does the new DRM driver currently work with Wayland compositors? I know Alyssa has demonstrated Weston on Panfrost, but that might've been with ARM's kernel driver or something

Yup, it supports Weston. Possibly more as it does say it supports some Wayland compositors, but only mentions Weston in the example: https://panfrost.freedesktop.org/building-panfrost-mesa.html
It's broken at present, due to exposing BUFFER_AGE which isn't properly implemented. Should be fixed in mesa 19.2.
Oh, good to know. Thanks for sharing that info!
