This does not affect X11 sessions, but has the advantage that we get much more testing of the Wayland backend in Wayland sessions.

I don't think we should take this in, you can have both X11 and Wayland running at the same time, and right now it makes sense to prefer X11, since Wayland support is beta at best.
