+- Do not recommend gnome-session-wayland for now. There are still
+  a couple issues to solve:
+  + openQA uses the cirrus video driver (qemu's default) which does
+    not work with Wayland (we can potentially switch that to qxl
+    for GNOME tests).
+  + YaST still needs extra tricks to start (root has no direct
+    access to Xwayland.
