+    <description summary="window decoration manager">
+      This interface allows a compositor to announce support for server-side
+      decorations.
+
+      A window decoration is a set of window controls as deemed appropriate by
+      the party managing them, such as user interface components used to move,
+      resize and change a window's state.
+
+      A client can use this protocol to request being decorated by a supporting
+      compositor.
+
+      If compositor and client do not negotiate the use of a server-side
+      decoration using this protocol, clients continue to self-decorate as they
+      see fit.
+
+      Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
+      backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes
+      may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump.
+      Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in
+      the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version.
+      Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the
+      version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the
+      interface version number is reset.

+
+        After requesting a decoration mode, the compositor will respond by
+        emitting a xdg_surface.configure event. The client should then update
+        its content, drawing it without decorations if the received mode is
+        server-side decorations. The client must also acknowledge the configure
+        when committing the new content (see xdg_surface.ack_configure).
+
+        The compositor can decide not to use the client's mode and enforce a
+        different mode instead.
+
+        Clients whose decoration mode depend on the xdg_toplevel state may send
+        a set_mode request in response to a xdg_surface.configure event and wait
+        for the next xdg_surface.configure event to prevent unwanted state.
+        Such clients are responsible for preventing configure loops and must
+        make sure not to send multiple successive set_mode requests with the
+        same decoration mode.
