Description:
In a Gnome Wayland session, Firefox (xwayland) falls back to llvmpipe instead of using Nvidia OGL driver.
Since xwayland is configured with "-D xwayland_eglstream=true", I suppose it should work?

Additional info:
Gnome 3.30 (testing repo)

Steps to reproduce:
With an Nvidia GPU, enable KMS and start into a Gnome (3.30 testing repo) Wayland session via GDM.
Start Firefox and see it running with llvmpipe instead of OGL via xwayland_eglstream (displayed in about:support, probably manually enable full OGL support via layers.acceleration.force-enabled=true in about:config)
This task depends upon

Is this still an issue? We had lots of updates here.

I don't have an Nvidia GPU anymore, somebody else would have to check.
