Hi,

this patch adds Fly Pie Gnome Shell extension which provides alternative way around menus.

However, I have been unable to get the settings working - they never launch. Maybe somebody will
know what's missing :-)

Haven't looked at it in detail, but I'm pretty sure it's libadwaita. 
There are some gjs-based apps, that have been wrapped to get their GI
libraries, but so far none of them are extensions.  Perhaps we should
make this one an example?

Cheers
