Yep. I’ve done this with Niri, too. It’s a really nice capability.

How did you end up managing things like waybar?

You'd end up with 2 copies of it running and you typically killall/pkill to reload it because it's expected you'd only run 1 copy but now with this nested solution there's 2 copies running.

The only thing really stopping me from Niri is it doesn't seem to have dynamic configs to let you have 1 main config and then source in a smaller 2nd config to overwrite settings in the main config.

That's really useful for having personalized changes per device or overwriting specific colors to change themes.

Hyprland has a `source` feature for this.
