From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Also this is the kind of issues Wayland will be facing now that it's starting to see widespread adoption, issues that arise from more and more complex situations created by interconnecting more apps with it in more ways.
How the devs handle this will be crucial and imo it can make or break the project in the long run. It's one thing to successfully run a hobby project at a small scale, it's another to shoulder the entire Linux desktop for the foreseeable future. That's the bar that X had to meet; if Wayland intends to be the Linux desktop it has to step up. "Not our problem, deal with it outside Wayland" will not do.
