The design philosphy behind Wayland is quite similar to SurfaceFlinger. Then the best thing to to ditch Wayland, embrace and leverage the work done by Google and extend it to support a traditional desktop window manager and XSurfaceFlinger to support legacy X apps.
Wayland has a chicken egg problem and convincing Nvidia/ATI to provide drivers for SurfaceFlinger would be much easier than for Wayland.
