Clutter as a stand alone library would continue to exist in its
current form, just like Cogl; what Matthias is referring to is putting
a copy of both Cogl and Clutter inside Mutter, so that it can access
the internals of the code instead of using the public API, to avoid
cutting gnome-shell sized holes in the layers in order to do stuff
that only the compositor needs to do.
Thanks for the clarification, much appreciated!
