Hi All,
While implementing Wayland compositor based QWayland module from Qt5.7 I 
noticed some interesting side effect of using multiple extensions 
plugins. As shown here 
<https://s21.postimg.org/rej48hozr/Screenshot_from_2016_10_14_12_01_21.png> 
each client application have their own windowing style/theme. Problem is 
that, I need to support both native Linux application(using Xdg shell 
extension) and custom application(using Qt --platform Wayland switch and 
default Wayland shell).

*Is there easy way to make windows style/theme consistent?*

On the other hand after some searching, it turned out that Wayland by 
default uses "client side decoration". In my case using "server side 
decoration" is one of possible solutions.
*Are there any other alternatives?*
