I think both FPC and LCL should integrate some FreeDesktop more 
functionalities (with different levels). For exemple D-Bus should be more used 
(both with GTK and Qt) as Windows API is giving equivalent functionality (see 
ShellApi unit for exemple).

For exemple, I know D-Bus is used through Qt when using Qt interface but D-Bus 
don't seem to be used directly.

My goal is to underline what is strongly missing: some equivalent widely used 
on Windows GUI with shell API. We could think multiplatform equivalent is not 
possible but this may be a wrong idea as MacOS is certainly providing an 
equivalent and with Linux we have FreeDesktop.

Like all the widgetset Lasarus the support some low-level code will be 
platform specific (tipically rewriting ShellApi basics for Windows, writing an 
equivalent with MacOS, an other one with FreeDesktop...) and high-level ones 
will be multiplatform.
