Hi, I wanted to try gio this week, and after a lot of work getting 
kde-plasma v5.14.3 working on Wayland (Funtoo x86_64), I now have hit the 
same issue here:

https://git.sr.ht/~eliasnaur/gio/tree/master/ui/app/os_wayland.go#L1134

"wayland: no xdg_wm_base available"

I'm a newbie to Wayland -- what does this mean and what component needs 
upgrading?

Thanks,
-Russ
