alt Hacker NewsI have no love lost for Wayland, but this:
> Make easy things easy. Make hard things doable.
is generally unachievable. Instead, pick one:
- easy things easy, hard things impossible
- easy things tedious, hard things possible
(Unless you want to maintain two sets of interfaces in parallel.)

This is quite easy and very widespread to accomplish by having helper functions for common operations.
