I thought they were using Hybris on the phones/tablets anyway? The PC is dead as we all know ;-)

Interesting thing to rely on such drivers is that it is assumed that because the drivers do OpenGL and usually shipped on millions of phones, that these drivers are awesome. At least, that is what I assumed.
Noticed the following interesting experience someone had via Phoronix regarding driver quality per company: https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2013/09/26/dolphin-emulator-...
Qualcomm/Adreno is reported as horrible. ARM/Mali as bad. So maybe reusing those drivers means limiting yourself to the exact requirements Android has, everything else could be missing or buggy.
Note: No idea how the blog relates to the needs of Wayland/Mir (EGL vs OpenGL: ?!?)
