Great, thanks for testing!

Embedding works by X window re-parenting.

Hatari UI provides it's X window ID to Hatari with environment
variable and Hatari asks SDL for its X window ID and them
ask X server to reparent Hatari SDL window under Hatari UI.

I don't know whether reparenting windows between Wayland client
processes is even possible (except for the compositor itself).

I.e. both SDL used by Hatari, and Gtk used by Hatari UI
need to be using X / XWayland, or things will fail:
