Puck has created a video demonstrating the work she's been doing with
the in-development Wayland security-context protocol [1], which allows a
Wayland compositor to distinguish between applications running in
different sandboxes (e.g. in different VMs).

The video is available at

As part of this work, she updated the draft wlroots and Sway
implementations to support the latest proposed version of the protocol,
exposed the security context information to Sway configuration hooks,
and created a draft crosvm implementation of exposing security context
information to the compositor.

There's some more information in Puck's post to the Spectrum development
mailing list. [2]

Thanks to NLnet and NGI Zero for funding this project.
