Two of the three panels still handed to GNOME, having actually checked each rather than repeating that they were not worth owning. Universal Access turned out to be mostly ours already: the magnifier, pointer size, text scale, motion and dimming were all present. High contrast was the real gap. It reaches GTK4 applications through the desktop portal, which republishes GNOME's accessibility setting as org.freedesktop.appearance contrast -- so no high-contrast theme is involved, and none is installed here. Verified end to end: committing the preference drove gsettings and the portal reported contrast 1. Sticky, slow and bounce keys stay absent. There is no Wayland or Hyprland implementation, and the compositor would store the XKB option while nothing ever acted on it. Remote desktop gained port, view-only, and clearing stored credentials. SETTING credentials opens a terminal running grdctl, which prompts for the password itself. That is not a hand-off for lack of effort: grdctl takes the password on a terminal and core-dumps without one, and the only alternative -- passing it as an argument -- would publish it through /proc to every process on this machine. Typed into grdctl directly it never passes through Panama, and a contract now fails if it ever appears on a command line. Color stays with GNOME, and not for lack of effort either. colord runs here with seven profiles and zero devices registered, because the daemons that register displays do not run under this session, and Hyprland exposes no ICC, gamma, or color-management option at all. A Color page could import a profile, attach it to nothing, and change nothing -- the same failure refused for rollback and printer drivers.
