Sent the display notch cutout description file for the MacBook Pro (M2 Pro, 14").

It would be nice if, at some point, the GNOME desktop (e.g., Mutter/GNOME Shell) could work with this information and adjust UI elements accordingly. Soon, there will be more and more devices with display cutouts.

There’s already amazing work by Phosh e.V. on this, so hopefully feature parity will come soon!

Btw. imagine kids dropping a phone and having small defect in 10% area of the display.

If you have this type of partial damage which hide some information, you could mark the region as a notch, so compositor avoid rendering there, which will lead to decreased screen size, but keep device usable.

Would it work somehow w/ current phoc code? @agx
