I think GNOME 3.20 on Wayland still has too many "papercuts" to be something we can support as a long-term default. I'm using it myself, and I've been fixing some of them (mainly those that have an impact on gnome-terminal), but others are more involved and are beyond my ability to fix. Many of the remaining issues with Wayland are not things we can realistically fix downstream, because they need new protocol development that has to be coordinated with Wayland and/or GNOME upstream developers (depending whether it's a standardized protocol or something that can reasonably be GNOME-specific). GNOME 3.22 will be released before squeeze freezes, and will hopefully do Wayland better (each GNOME 3 release so far has done Wayland significantly better than the last). The Fedora developers are aiming to default to Wayland for their release that uses GNOME 3.22 - but I'm not sure how much weight to put on that, because they've been hoping to default to Wayland for several Fedora releases now, and so far they've always decided closer to their release that it wasn't ready. If you test GNOME Shell on Wayland, please usertag your bug reports to appear in <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=pkg-gnome-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org;tag=wayland> so we can keep track of how numerous and severe the issues are.
