Currently, we use wl_shell for the Wayland backend. However, this protocols deprecated and other Wayland compositors such as Sway don't support wl_shell (swaywm/sway#1692). Therefore, the embedder doesn't work on Wayland compositors other than weston.

You would get the following error message.

[ERROR][linuxes_window_wayland.cc(627)] Invalid compositor and shell.
Failed to create view controller.
