Description Cameron Gutman 2021-01-20 00:28:31 UTC 
We can use the zwp_keyboard_shortcuts_inhibit_manager_v1 protocol to support keyboard grab (SDL_HINT_GRAB_KEYBOARD) on Wayland just like we do with XGrabKeyboard() for X11.

This is great for remote desktop and similar applications using SDL on Wayland.
