NSMacintoshMenuStyle drawn in center of screen on Wayfire/Wayland
When running GNUstep applications on Wayfire/Wayland, the Menus always draw in the center of the monitor and not at the top of the screen like they do on X11.
Example Image:
Just to make sure. Is this behaviour with the X11 backend or with the experimental Wayland backend?
It's the experimental wayland backend.

Not every compositor does this. Others like Hikiri, and Hyprland render it at the top perfectly fine. There are issues to fix like buttons not working, menus crashing when GNUstep/Library/Services is populated that I am looking into.
I've moved to labwc, it's much better. I'm mostly running into window/buffer teardown stability issues on Wayland now.
custom element positioning it is supported through wlr layer shell protocol that many compositors support but not all of them you can check here: https://wayland.app/protocols/wlr-layer-shell-unstable-v1
