We want to expand greg to not only be able to play music, but do other things as well. Just to paint a picture (these warrant their own dependent issues), we'd like to play anime on it, do video calls, show grafana and bus tables, as well as overlaying gifs of dancing anime girls on top of the videos.

The (assumingly) easiest way of doing this is to have the program control the current window manager through a control socket of some sort (possibly dbus). Look into using swayctl or something similar to start webbrowsers (maybe qutebrowser, so we can control it through python homebrew?) and overlay gifs.

It would be nice if we build it on top of something wayland, to make it more future proof.
