Good to know, my understanding of the macOS system APIs is fairly limited. I'm sure it's doable, with some elbow grease and CGO. We just haven't prioritized that variant of the client due to relatively low usage.

If you want to avoid Cgo, you can use https://github.com/ebitengine/purego or Goffi to call the native functions. It's a bit cursed, but works.
