Hi Jason,

I was recently giving a look at your work because there are a lot of
things there which I believe will be necessary for the wayland port.

I haven't had time to work on it for the last months, but I am planing
to come to it in a few weeks, and getting your branch merged would
make things a lot easier for me. Of course I will have to re-factor my
code to take vantage of GHOST_Context.
