Gnome is the worst of the wayland compositors in terms of spec compliance. KDE and sway are much better in this regard. What good is having protocol specifications when the reference implementation does not implement it, and Gnome, the biggest Wayland desktop, does its own thing anyway?

I am still waiting for Gnome to implement server-side decorations and for proper drag and drop between windows.

This decision of the Gnome folks really means a very bad fragmentation of the Wayland infrastructure

The point of extensions being extension and not being a part of core protocol is being optional, you know. On the other hand, compliant clients have to run and behave correctly without them being present.

Sorry little wizard, you are going to wait for a while. Don't hold your breath meanwhile :/

That being said, it is not going to be implemented anytime soon. Intentionally. For a good reasons.
