The ext-image-capture-source-v1 and ext-image-copy-capture-v1 screen copy protocols build upon wlroots' wlr-screencopy-unstable-v1 with various improvements for better screen capture support under Wayland. These new protocols should allow for better performance and window capturing support for use-cases around RDP/VNC remote desktop, screen sharing, and more.

Merge Request: Create ext-image-capture-source-v1 and ext-image-copy-capture-v1

Does anyone know of this gets us closer to having a working software KVM solution with Wayland?

I've tried Synergy, Input Leap, and Waynergy, but nothing seems to work, unfortunately.
