> but with a full command-line API working with Wayland and X It sorta just feels like this will never happen. I share the sentiment, but nobody has really "solved" the GUI/CLI interoperability issue to my knowledge. MacOS dumps everything in a database - Windows has it's Registry; even professionally it's not something people care about. The current advanced DEs like KDE and GNOME both have advanced object frameworks backing them, which doesn't really translate well into composable CLIs. The turn-of-the-century OSes like NeXTstep and GNUstep ushered in this anti-UNIX philosophy. You should give Nix/NixOS a look, though. It might scratch your "one file to config them all" itch.
