+Subject: [PATCH] weston-launch: Run weston in the user login shell
+
+This patch brings back the user environment from the shell.
+In the future, weston-launch could create the Wayland socket earlier, in
+which case the user's shell could be used to run Wayland-specific tools
+in the new Weston session.
