Look, maybe rootless screen recording is "essential for assistive technologies" too, that doesn't mean you're going to (or even should) get it.

The Wayland people seem to want it both ways. If Wayland is intended to replace X11, then we absolutely should have a way to do everything we can already do with X11. And if Wayland isn't intended to replace X11, then distros should keep it around as a first-class citizen.
