Using an unnamed Unix Domain Socket would make more difficult for external applications to attach to the nested Wayland compositor, which currently use a named socked visible on the filesystem. wl_display_add_socket_fd() could be used with such unnamed socket (as returned by socketpair()) instead of wl_display_add_socket().
