No. But a consumer implementation is something that all apps on both MacOS and GNUstep have; to leave it out of Emacs would be a glaring deficit to users. A provider implementation, where Emacs exports menu entries for interapplication services to other apps, is nice, but is only done by a minority of apps on either platform, so it goes beyond what is needed for Emacs to be a first-class desktop citizen and might as well be left for distributions.
