Description

Nested Wayland sessions and X11 forwarding can be hosted through the Sommelier compositor. Developers and VM/container users run `sommelier` when they need a translation layer for graphical apps in constrained environments. It brokers windows and input across display boundaries, so trust and isolation assumptions matter.
