other compositors like Weston, Mutter and labwc. It has been decided not to
block the release due to this regression as it is an eco-system wide issue
that has existed for a long time. [#2787]
- VR headset support is disabled when compiled with wlroots `0.19.0` to work
around a bug on the wlroots side which is expected to be fixed in wlroots
`0.19.1` [#2887]
With wlroots compiled with libwayland (>= 1.24.0), there is an invisible margin
preventing pointer focus on some layer-shell surfaces including those created by
Gtk. In simple words, this is because libwayland now rounds floats a bit
differently [#3099]. There is a pending fix [wlroots-5159].
- It is strongly recommended to use at least wlroots 0.19.1 [#2943]

This release contains a good amount of bug-fixes, code simplification and
small usability improvements.

### Added
- Add `<windowSwitcher order="focus|age"/>` to optionally order windows by age
rather than most recent focus. @mbroemme [#3229]
- Replace `<snapping><range>` with `<snapping><range inner="" outer="">` to
provide more granular control when configuring the size of snapping areas
(including `<topMaximize>`) on output edges with and without adjacent outputs.

### Fixed
- Handle desktop files with dots in their names better @Consolatis [#3267]
- Do not synthesize cursor relative motion events from absolute events to fix a
couple of problems: Firstly to avoid unexpectedly large relative motion deltas
with multiple input devices or in nested/VM scenarios, and secondly to fix
erratic mouse behavior in applications that use relative events whilst locking
with pointer constraints. @jlindgren90 [#3251]
- Allow cursor movement until entering constraint surface, to fix an issue where
the cursor would get stuck (immovable) outside the window of a Wine/Wayland
game, if it was already outside when the game started (which is common with
4:3 games on a 16:9 screen). @jlindgren90 [#3252]
- Flush XCB connection to mitigate race between Raise and input. @jlindgren90
