> It seems like instead of introducing another IPC protocol like this project does

It doesn't introduce a new IPC, it uses the Wayland protocol with the river-window-management-v1 extension. The extension mainly defines new objects and verbs for them, but it's the same protocol.

Separate process means that the window manager can be written in any language (even, e.g.: Python).

Interpreters for Python, Lua, etc. can be embedded so using them does not require a separate process.

What about Emacs? That's the usecase I care about. Until I can get Emacs to manage my Wayland windows ala EXWM, I'm sticking to X.
