Hydra is currently busy with 'core-updates'.  In the mean time, please
queue up patches on 'staging' so we can start it as soon as core-updates
is merged.  The patch LGTM!

Does GNOME on Wayland work on current 'master'?  The only real
difference on staging (apart from this patch) is GTK+ 3.22.30, which is
fairly uneventful:

But perhaps they removed some other interfaces when adding xdg-shell
support?
