There is already a dbus protocol for this canonical came up with for ubuntu/unity and it's got support in several toolkits already. Look into com.canonical.AppMenu.Registrar (google for it). This is also already implemented by at least some wayland compositors. (enlightenment does - optional module to load for the feature). it works in X11 and wayland too. > Hi, > > This isn't a concrete proposal but I think it would be nice to have > support for compositors implementing a menu like interface that > wayland clients can use.
