ext-tray-v1https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/355There's no reason to expect GNOME to implement it, and I'm surprised they haven't NACKed it.
It literally was developed by gnome. The merge request is coming from a gnome developer.
You don't have to like gnome but it is silly to try to gate keep over it.
"I understand that some compositors have no interest in allowing clients to show arbitrary content in tray areas. GNOME, for example, doesn't even have a tray area and it is my understanding that they believe that even the current SNI protocols allow clients too much freedom. Such compositors should not implement this protocol."
--the page you're referencing, by the creator of the protocol
Which I find to be a weird stance.
Gnome also believes that a window must have control over its own titlebar to draw it as it sees fit while simultaneously declaring it must not have control over a tray icon.
Also funny that Gnome seems to have objected to KDE proposal and wrote their own even though they seem to say point blank that while they are dictating how all the other DEs will do it, they themselves will be ignoring it. Why get in the business of a protocol you don't even want to implement in the first place...
