Pekka I think you misunderstod my point, let me try to be more clear.
The "circular menu" is actually just a window, that paints some icons on
a ring. It doesn't have a parent window, and that's the problem.
How in Wayland will we be able to place this window so that its center
is right on the cursor position ?
We know the mouse position only relatively to a surface, but here we
need the mouse position on the screen, and then positionning the window
relatively to it.
In short, you press the shortkey, and then a ring of icons appear
scentered on the cursor. The question is "how?"

I think you can make the circular menu a child window. Make it a child of whatever surface received the keystroke.

The only problem remaining is that the client may not know the current position of the mouse relative to this surface.
