Bug Description

Subsurfaces/BufferStreams can draw outside their Window. Just do
1. mir_demo_server &
2. mir_demo_client_multistream

This makes window management quite tricky.

Instead it would be most logical to clip the buffer streams inside the Window, and to advertise that policy to any Mir-based shell.
