How effective do you think the access control mechanisms in Wayland/PipeWire will be? I'm not sure how widely used they are right now but it seems like a step in the right direction rather than allowing all Wayland clients all the privileged extensions (screen recording, input methods) nullifying most security benefits over X11. Also xdg-dbus-proxy exists for dbus though its security depends on what peers you allow it to talk to.
