            Bug ID: 42284
           Summary: Enable using Wine with Wayland and without X on Linux
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: shtetldik at gmail.com
      Distribution: ---

Currently, Wine on Linux is strongly dependent on X, and when used with the
desktop environment with new Wayland display server, Wine is forced to run
through XWayland, which so far remains a poor experience.

The whole Linux desktop is now strongly pushing the switch from X to Wayland,
and many major applications are now in the process of enabling this switch.

Is there some plan for such effort in Wine? Is it even feasible? I couldn't
find any bugs opened for it, so I'm opening one here to track this.
