A desktop window

An interface that may be implemented by a wl_surface, for implementations that provide a desktop-style user interface.

It provides requests to treat surfaces like windows, allowing to set properties like maximized, fullscreen, minimized, and to move and resize them, and associate metadata like title and app id.

The client must call wl_surface.commit on the corresponding wl_surface for the xdg_surface state to take effect. Prior to committing the new state, it can set up initial configuration, such as maximizing or setting a window geometry.

Even without attaching a buffer the compositor must respond to initial committed configuration, for instance sending a configure event with expected window geometry if the client maximized its surface during initialization.

For a surface to be mapped by the compositor the client must have committed both an xdg_surface state and a buffer.
