   for different window types like menus, a way of scaling windows,
   handling of foreign displays, improved handling of window
   moving/resizing, various code restructuring, special runtime checks
   for correct extensions and other compositors, lots of bug fixes,
   and possibly other stuff I'm missing or not understanding (Søren)

   workspaces (Thomas) [#151183]
