### Wayland-specific notes
The Qt Widgets based version basically works under Wayland but there are positioning issues and the settings

* The tray menu can not be positioned correctly under Wayland because the protocol does not allow setting window positions from
the client-side (at least I don't know a way to do it). This issue can not be fixed unless Wayland provides an API to set the
