Bug Description

It would be great to have experimental wayland/XWayland support.

Is there a particular reason that wayland isn't enabled?
gnome-shell and gnome-session do not seem to support the --wayland respectively --session gnome-wayland parameters

tags: added: gnome-wayland
removed: wayland

Hi Andreas,

We are currently working on wayland support on vivid (15.04). It would be great if you could help test and report any bugs that you find.

Thanks
