-     * This was done as a workaround for a bug in Sway
-     * (https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/6023
-     *
-     * Sway waited for configure ACKs from hidden windows. These never
-     * arrived because Sway never scheduled any frame callbacks for
-     * these hidden windows...
-     *
-     * This has bene fixed as of Sway-1.6.
-     *
-     * Unfortunately, slow moving distros (Debian *cough* are still
-     * stuck on Sway-1.5, and will be so for the foreseeable
-     * future.
-     *
-     * TODO: check for e.g. SWAYSOCK and only preempt if it exists?
-     * We'd still be pre-emptying on Sway-1.6, but at least other
-     * compositors would be unaffected.
-     *
-     * Or do we ignore Sway-1.5 users and point them to the Sway bug?
-     *
-     * Note that it doesn't appear to cause any issues to have this
-     * enabled, on any compositor.
