### Differences with rofi (in wayland mode)
### Missing features in Wayland mode

* `-normal-window` flag in Wayland mode. Though it is also considered as a toy/deprecated feature in Upstream rofi
* selecting which monitor to run rofi on in Wayland mode, rofi only shows up on the currently focused monitor
* some window locations parameters work partially, `x-offset` and `y-offset` are only working from screen edges
* some X11-specific options like `-dpi` or fake transparency
Due to the different architecture and available APIs in Wayland mode, some original rofi features are difficult or impossible to replicate

Window switcher mode is now ready to use on compositors with support for wlr-foreign-toplevel-management.
* `-normal-window` flag. Though it is also considered as a toy/deprecated feature in Upstream rofi. Not impossible but would require some work.
* `-monitor -n` for fine-grained selection of monitor to display rofi on
* some window locations parameters work partially, `x-offset` and `y-offset` are only working from screen edges
* fake transparency
* window mode on KWin which implements different protocols than the wlr familiy
