Re: About Gtk4, modules and GlobalMenu approach

["Konstantin P." <ria freelander gmail com>]

OK, so, I need another more hackish way to apply it (I like system-wide menu removal, which not depend on application developers at all (maybe an LD_PRELOAD hack or try to use module with dummy GIO extension implementation)).

I heard than you removed general purpose loadable modules support, so, I cannot alter GtkMenuBar and GtkWindow to acheive support for Global Menu.

Can I develop a patch to GTK which enables support exporting all GtkMenuBar instances as GMenuModels (regardless of origin) when gtk-shell-shows-menubar is enabled and set to 1?

No, we don't think that is appropriate, as we already said in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/1132
