I tried.

modding getConnection means modding modding ClientConnection constructor, modding that means modding the Private ctor

that gets into

  wl_client_add_destroy_listener(c, &listener);

c is now const, that fails.

----

We have 3 options:

- a const_cast somewhere
- Change Display to create ClientConnections when they come in, not on demand, then we can make getconnection const everywhere. (IMHO, maybe worth it, as our current clientConnected signal is rather misleading)
- return PID in the API here instead of the client.
