  <interface name="wp_pointer_warp_v1" version="1">
    <description summary="reposition the pointer to a location on a surface">
      This global interface allows applications to request the pointer to be
      moved to a position relative to a wl_surface.

      Note that if the desired behavior is to constrain the pointer to an area
      or lock it to a position, this protocol does not provide a reliable way
      to do that. The pointer constraint and pointer lock protocols should be
      used for those use cases instead.

      Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the testing
      phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with the
      corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes can
      only be done by creating a new major version of the extension.

        Request the compositor to move the pointer to a surface-local position.
        Whether or not the compositor honors the request is implementation defined,
        but it should
        - honor it if the surface has pointer focus, including
          when it has an implicit pointer grab
        - reject it if the enter serial is incorrect
        - reject it if the requested position is outside of the surface

        Note that the enter serial is valid for any surface of the client,
        and does not have to be from the surface the pointer is warped to.
