I have a KVM switch I use to switch between a FreeBSD desktop and a docked mac.
I've been playing with Wayland on FreeBSD for a couple of months now. Under
14.3 and 15, ive noticed when my KVM switch detaches my USB peripherals, and
then later reattaches them Wayland never picks up the reattached
keyboard/mouse. 

It has been difficult to debug the issue, as my system becomes unusable without
any input devices.

XOrg does not exhibit this flaw. (Again checked on 14.3 and 15.0).
