Bug ID: 450038
Summary: No menubar at all in Wayland with GTK3 applications

OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED

Screenshot of Inkscape, with no global menu, and no application menubar either
SUMMARY
I use the Global Menu applet and have appmenu-gtk2-module and
appmenu-gtk3-module installed.
In Wayland, whenever I start a GTK3 application, it shows no menu at all: the
menu does not get exported to the Global Menu, but the application window does
not show a menu bar either - see attached screenshot.
I tested this with Inkscape, GLabels and Electron-based apps (signal-desktop in
my case).
It looks as if the Global Menu does not detect the menu (bug 424485), but the
application is expecting its menu to be drawn by somebody else anyway.
It would be good if the apps could at least draw their own menu in their
window. Currently for me the only workaround to access menu-based functionality
is to launch the application in XWayland, with the associated problems
regarding scaling etc.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. With the global menu applet enabled, and appmenu-gtk-module installed,
launch a GTK3 app (tested with Inkscape, GLabels and signal-desktop)
OBSERVED RESULT
The application's menu does not appear in the global menu, but the window
contains no menu bar either. All menu functions are inaccessible.
EXPECTED RESULT
The global menu should show the application's menu; or, barring that, at least
the application's window should show a menu bar.
