Huh, and here I am on the other side wanting exactly that (different dist and DE though) but haven't gotten that part figured out yet, everything seems to have access by default... Seems end-user accessible docs still have some gaps eh (:

A lot of the parts about when and how the user is asked for permission is a Wayland compositor dependent implementation details.

E.g. while sway works well it tends to not ask the user and just grants permission as it doesn't really have it's own "HUD" (it has a default task parts, but that just a default program you could run if you want to, there are also other programs).

It's also one of the things which makes most sense to be part of the "HUD" interface of the Wayland compositor so not making it a implementation details doesn't make much sense sadly.
