I am one of those X11-only, no-toolkit Emacs users. The only times I need gtk support is when I run a variant build with gtk3 support in order to have a native Wayland window which doesn't require Xwayland. But I primarily use X11 so the no-toolkit, X11-only build.

It does X11 specific calls unconditionally, so it is not currently possible to run emacs as a native Wayland client.

  One of the big advantages of the new GTK-only backend I propose in [1] is the ability to use non-X GTK back-ends, like Wayland and Broadway. But SHTDI. Volunteering?

    I already spend most of my day writing an IDE (GNOME Builder) and making it Wayland ready out of the box. However, I am responsive on #gtk+ answering questions to people working on this.
