Yes, it's just a trivial example that doesn't do anything. The point is that the
xwidget startup causes the diagnostics that I mentioned, on Ubuntu 20.04.

Yes, I was wrong when I fingered Wayland in the original bug report. I've
retitled the bug report to say "under Ubuntu 20.04" rather than "under Wayland".
For what it's worth, Ubuntu 20.04 ships Emacs 26.3 without enabling xwidgets, so
the bug is not present in /usr/bin/emacs.
Also, I have not tested the Emacs 27.1 that Ubuntu makes available as a snap,
but that snap outputs such a blizzard of other diagnostics, that I expect nobody
would care anyway. See:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs/+bug/1898083
I am getting the impression that Ubuntu no longer cares about Emacs; if that's
true, I suppose I should stop using Ubuntu.
