wayland: ensure bemenu is shown on top of fullscreen windows #376

Closed Consolatis closed 6 months ago

Consolatis commented 6 months ago

Before this patch, wayland compositors that render fullscreen windows between the top and overlay layers would show bemenu behind an active fullscreen window. For other compositors the z-rendering order was undefined.

This change ensures that bemenu will always be on top of other usual windows (including fullscreen ones).

There used to be security issue related to this in swaylock but I guess it's now ok? https://github.com/swaywm/swaylock/issues/107

Indeed, the current locking protocol ext-session-lock-v1 doesn't use the overlay layer and is completely independent from the layershell protocol.
