One of the features that users often miss when moving from X11 to Wayland is
the ability to save and restore the position of windows between sessions. At GUADEC˙2026, held in
A˙Coruña, Spain, Adrian Vovk provided an overview of work that has gone
into providing a platform-wide save and restore framework for GNOME. After two
failed attempts at landing an API, he believes that the third try will be the
one to succeed-though not in time for the upcoming GNOME˙51 release
due in October.
