I think genesis is important. Our app launcher is an example but will likely not be used by everyone. Genesis should wrap up those things that we want common on all systems wrt app lifecycle management. Then we have a single consistent mechanism for launching and monitoring apps.
I also agree that we should use libgmenu if possible and improve it if it has shortcomings. My 2c.

Anyway I will try to verify the performance recent days to get the data by myself. And actually, this is not the most important thing we are considering about, if it's ok, well, genesis can use it. Why not! I guess what's most important is that should this work be done in genesis to wrap all the things together in a nut or we just leave it to app launcher.
