Once you enable XLibre namespaces filtering it breaks screensharing, global hotkeys. Obviously. It is breaking change.

Mob unable to response on technical question. To use logic.

Ah, the classic moving of goalposts.

I'll bite: It is far from impossible, and already solved elsewhere: Most applications do not need such functionality.

For those that do, provide mechanisms to request and facilitate access to such functionality when needed. Like portals do for other functionality. And a wrapper to request automatically for e.g. old binaries without source.

Uncool.

API is contract. API grants access to screen content, key presses. Users blame Wayland for breaking this contract. Both Wayland and XLibre namespaces brake it. Lunduke mob unable to reason, claims "moving goalposts". Lunduke mob claims improving security is not needed. Lunduke mod wants Linux desktop to be malware can. They claim security improvements for everyone (like defaults on Android) is corporations taking away their freedom. Lunduke mob unable to comprehend Wayland started by XOrg developers who knew X11 flaws. They unable to be thankful for people bringing security to modern expectations.
