I’m confused by what you’re saying here, because I can’t think of any particularly compelling reason to run Alacritty inside WSL beyond ease of installation.
You can run the Windows Alacritty from WSL2 with no trouble (like any other .exe file), and you can run WSL stuff inside Alacritty.
Admittedly spawning something WSL-side inside Alacritty from the WSL side becomes a smidgeon more complicated, because you’ll need to rewrite any `alacritty --command …` to run it through wsl.exe or your distro-specific launcher. But even if you need to do that, that should be pretty much set-and-forget with a little wrapper shell script.
Have I misunderstood the reason for your remark?
