File metadata and controls

General

  • Need Dbus support for stuff like systemd integration. Waiting on my new dbus library. https://github.com/igo95862/py-sd-bus
  • Maybe port GUIs to Dbus integration. Less spagthetti, GTK and Qt will be written in native languages. (C and C++)
  • Some kind of dependency system for services? For example, both wayland and x11 want toolkits settings so they both can depend on toolkit settings service.
  • Passing file outside of sandbox to be opened by another application or sandbox. For example, being able to download a torrent from browser sandbox and pass it to torrent client sandbox. Use xdg-desktop-portal for this.
  • Free up temp files after the communication with helper has been established.

Applications

More profiles for commonly used applications. Maybe check Arch Linux stats for commonly used applications?

Services

  • Use sd-device to search for device attributes. libudev is actually deprecated. sd-device can be added to my D-Bus library.

GTK

  • How does directory metadata is shared. If you sort a directory by size, it is somehow is remembered when not sandboxed. Is it a Dbus API? a file?
  • Is sharing recent file metadata folder safe? (under ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel)
  • Accessibility bus. ..* Talk to org.a11y.Bus dbus. ..* There is also a GetAddress() method? Is it needed?
  • Bookmarks. (~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks)

Wayland

  • Being able to spawn an independent Xwayland server. Needs compositor support. How do I ask GNOME team to consider such option?

Direct Rendering

  • Being able to select which DRI device to pass. (not sure how I can test without having access to PC with two graphics cards)

GUI

  • Error message screens
  • Options window becoming too large as more and more options are being added
  • Same with profiles drop down

New ideas

  • Being able to run ephemeral home directory that gets destroyed after closing.
  • Preload certain files in to memory to speed up startup? (looking at you Steam) vmtouch exists but is not packaged in Arch.
  • New command terminal. Spawns a terminal inside the instance.
