+    <description summary="extended user interface for Automotive Grade Linux platform">
+      This interface allows another client bind to the agl_shell interface,
+      while there's another shell client already present.
+
+      The client should first bind to this interface and then inform the
+      compositor with the 'doas_shell_client' request and it wants to bind to
+      the agl_shell interface. The client is still expected, if using a new
+      version of the agl_shell interface, to wait for the 'bound_ok' and
+      'bound_fail' events before issueing any other requests/events.
+
+      Note that this interface has its limitations, and the compositor would
+      still refuse the act for 'set_panel' or 'set_background' requests
+      of the agl_shell interface if there's already a client that used them.
+
+      Any other requests or events should be delievered and handled as it would
+      a client bound to the agl_shell interface.

+        This would reset the state and would make any requests made
+        on the agl_shell interface be terminated. The client would need 
+        to bind again the agl_shell_ext and issue a 'doas_shell_client'
