No, it is NOT the new standard since as I have said, wayland apps have
no issue running as root. Applications will NOT be totally rewritten to
split off the parts that need root into a separate program. YOU stop
changing the title, YOU are being a nuisance: this does not just affect
gparted. In fact, gparted has now worked around the issue by
automatically running xhost to fix the broken configuration.
Jeremy, you can easily see it is true by simply suing to root and
running any native wayland ( gdm3 ) application ( like gedit ). It
works just fine.
As long as gdm3 continues to NOT perform the Xauthority configuration
its man page says it is supposed to, it is a bug in gdm3.
