Wayland is just a protocol, so it doesn't have "backends" of its own.
Actually, desktop environments that support Wayland clients use "native"
backends. That means they implement their own logic to interface with
the kernel and the hardware. So you would be asking for a mir client
that emulates that kernel DRM/KMS layer. I don't think anyone is ever
going to do that.
>From another perspective though, good news! Mir 0.28.0 introduces
support for Wayland apps.

Title:
Wayland on Mir
Status in Mir:
Invalid
Bug description:
Now that unity system compositor will be installed by default soon. Wayland
should come with a Mir backend so desktop environments that use Wayland can run
under USC.
This should be very similar to XMir. Maybe code can even be shared?
