What kind of "assumptions" of different compositors would make this troublesome? Either you can provide the above requirements, or you can't. That's it.
Oh, and I also wonder what kind of conditions would encourage developers to port/write their software for wayland. "Write one backend that works with all compositors exposing that interface" vs "first split my entire codebase into a library, then write 20 backends for each compositor out there". Hmmm..
