Tauri: Meta: Postponed Ideas

[Simon-Laux]

• clean shutdown (maybe copy cancel guard stuff from dc-rpc-server?)
• even better source code structure in the rust code
• Use channel for jsonrpc extra performance? I asked in discord, right now I think its only one direction backend to frontend -> could already be useful for that one direction backend to frontend, because that direction has more data anyway
• Delete action in main menu

security

• security -> try to find a way to get rid of (or disable or lock down) the global reference __TAURI_INTERNALS__, that it can only be called from the runtime interface implementation
• Find out how/if the Isolation pattern with the hook script can help us to harden the app (I can't think of a way it would help in our use case)

less priority

• for blobs scheme - find out whether we can stream big files

  • streaming for videos and larger audio blob files:
    • https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/blob/fdaf48fc4a706b968e92b2b44e3830c51a5be1fe/examples/streaming/main.rs#L168

• try out https://docs.rs/specta/latest/specta/index.html - for typesafe tauri api (specta feature)
  - but that's probably not needed in our case?

• undo and redo menu options for windows and linux? not really a priority

• menu: windows: annoying flicker that happens when you change language or zoom, but that's for another time I guess.

• fullscreen menu option does not work on windows

Postponed issues

• main menu looks different on macOS (quit and settings are in app menu) - taken over from Tauri Menu #4755

Postponed issues that need contribution to upstream (tauri, wry, muda, ...)

• edit menu items don't work on sway/wayland linux
• keyboard shortcut for zoom in is still an open question: [bug] Menu item accellerator/keybord-shortcut Some("Command++") does not work tauri-apps/tauri#12945
• keyboard shortcuts on windows are not working because of CustomMenuItem accelerators don't trigger on_menu_event on Windows tauri-apps/wry#451
