           Summary: [GTK] Use an unnamed socket for the nested Wayland
                    compositor to make external access more difficult

            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal

Using an unnamed Unix Domain Socket would make more difficult for external applications to attach to the nested Wayland compositor, which currently use a named socked visible on the filesystem.

wl_display_add_socket_fd() could be used with such unnamed socket (as returned by socketpair()) instead of wl_display_add_socket().
