D-Bus Menus #8269

Open DemiMarie opened 1 year ago

How to file a helpful issue

The problem you're addressing (if any)

Wayland applications have no way to display app menus on the host.

The solution you'd like

D-Bus menu support

The value to a user, and who that user might be

All users who are switching from X11 applications to Wayland ones will benefit from not losing app menu support.

hmm not sure about dbus to use it anywhere, it has tons of security/privacy issues e.g:

so if something to be done is better to avoid it to be done over dbus.

@TNTBOMBOM The inter-VM protocol will not be based on D-Bus.
