Maybe consider dividing Linux by desktop manager? Just an idea.
(Oh and btw, "unimportant" commits are always very intriguing. I can never resist to go and check the details. Oh and a question, how is this project going? It is some awesome work and I can't wait to see it fully operationnal!)

re sysmenus: I have no idea if/how you make these in Linux. Research welcome, that's why I make those issues :)

re how the project is going -- you mean nw or luapower?

This one ― but I'll git pull and see by myself.

On Gnome desktop (running devel version 3.20), there is a Tray, with Icons, that is currently called “legacyTray”, which tells you much about their future intentions about this… I'd say just ignore Gnome for now.

And XFCE I don't use, but I know they have a more standard system tray.

re nw status: I'd say it's pretty usable and I'm happy with the API, but look at the open issues to get an idea about what is missing (I made an issue with just about everything that I could imagine being a feature). You'll notice that Linux support is weak at the seams (some features are not even possible with X11 but that's all documented). Desktop integration in Linux is janky as you found out, not sure if it's even worth pursuing that much.
