+        This event indicates that one or more new outputs have been
+        created. All clients must send an ack_new_output request in response
+        to this event. If a client wishes to create a new layer surface in
+        response to the new output(s), it must make an ack_new_output request
+        with the provided serial after creating any new layer surfaces using
+        the get_layer_surface request and before the first commit on any of
+        the new surfaces. If the client does not wish to create a new layer
+        surface, it should ack immediately.
+
+        This allows the compositor to wait until new layer surfaces are ready
+        before rendering the first frame of new outputs, avoiding a race that
+        could cause imperfect frames.
