** 2019-09-03 bug: panel window should not get focus in GNOME 3 on Wayland.
currently panel keeps flashing when typing in this env.
it's focus-in focus-out problem.
when panel shows up, zero got a focus-out event, which it think user has
switched off emacs window, so it send hide() to panel. Now focus is back in
emacs, focus-in, zero wants to show the panel again. it's endless recursion.
The key problem is zero-panel should not receive focus in GNOME 3 shell.
I already set this in ui file:
False
False
They don't work properly in Wayland.

** 2019-09-02 support user configuration of theme and panel orientation.
is it supported by zero-el?
** 2019-09-02 remove black bg in round corner. should be transparent.
is it because I don't have a compositor that support alpha?

** 2019-09-02 should I add README in deb file? where to install it to?

- maybe also write a man page.
/usr/share/man/man1/zero-panel.1.gz
example man page
/usr/share/man/man1/python3.5.1.gz

** 2019-09-02 issue: can't show panel in GNOME 3 shell
- it seems dbus message is resent quite a few times for the same preedit str.
is it because I didn't send a response and dbus has auto resend?
it's not dbus resend problem.
I see the problem. it's focus-in focus-out problem.
when panel shows up, zero got a focus-out event, which it think user has
switched off emacs window, so it send hide() to panel. Now focus is back in
emacs, focus-in, zero wants to show the panel again. it's endless recursion.
The key problem is zero-panel should not receive focus in GNOME 3 shell.

yes. confirmed only wayland is running, X is not.
