Porting Kivy exposes some interesting potential, and it works for the most part out of the box - though some glitches will need to be fixed before it's stable.

@poVoq Yup, that should work fine.

@poVoq Yup, it runs on Mir. No repo yet - I'm just testing things for now. To test, I made / writable and then installed kivy from this ppa https://launchpad.net/~kivy-team/+archive/ubuntu/kivy?field.series_filter=xenial like so (SDL2 is also required, but should be installed automatically - not certain though as I had it preinstalled):

apt-get install kivy python3-pil

And then to run:

DESKTOP_FILE_HINT=unity8.desktop python3 <file.py>

It gives a Segmentation Fault sometimes, but rerunning usually fixes it.
