Note we're not using wayland default in the graphical media because it
could cause headaches for Nvidia users. But the session is still available
if someone logs out.

Motivation for this change

This doesn't add it to the release. It's just stuff that I'd like committed that's been languishing around.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Suspend the machine after inactivity., they could run into the issue with remote connections maybe?
It might be a problem for the installer media to have an incongruent configuration versus someone just using gnome3.enable. But I'm betting if we get the iso we can seed the generated configuration.nix from nixos-install with a comment about this option.

Only that the comments are too vague. They should at least link to the explanation above.
