  <interface name="zwlr_input_inhibit_manager_v1" version="1">
    <description summary="inhibits input events to other clients">
      Clients can use this interface to prevent input events from being sent to
      any surfaces but its own, which is useful for example in lock screen
      software. It is assumed that access to this interface will be locked down
      to whitelisted clients by the compositor.

      While this resource exists, input to clients other than the owner of the
      inhibitor resource will not receive input events. The client that owns
      this resource will receive all input events normally. The compositor will
      also disable all of its own input processing (such as keyboard shortcuts)
      while the inhibitor is active.

      The compositor may continue to send input events to selected clients,
      such as an on-screen keyboard (via the input-method protocol).
