Welcome to the xembed-sni-proxy wiki!

FAQ:

Why not embed it in plasma-workspace directly.

I did consider trying that, it basically comes to the same thing though:

  • given we want wayland support we'd have to have our own X connection and event processor (do-able)
  • we'd still render offscreen and convert to a QQuickItem. Only difference is we'd probably do an OpenGL texture share rather than a pixmap.
  • clicking would still be the same

Effectively it's identical, just with one less DBus call.. might save a few Mb ram, but at the cost of crash safety.
