Just out of curiosity, what issues do you run into using them in a tiling WM?

Context menues not being at the right position, directly closing after opening (so fast that you can't really see it) as well as menu items sometimes not being selectable.

Especially the quick command/search menues doesn't work at all and context menues sometimes don't work either.

(Edit: And context/popup menues not working is the main theme of problems with Java GUIs, hence my parent post, also setting the "magic" no-reparenting env variable doesn't fix it)

I can second these issues using i3 and arch. I've had subtle issues like these in Ghidra and when I once tried Armitage (I wanted the Hail Mary feature), it was so messy I've never used it since.
