Can runtime dependency "xdg-desktop-portal-gtk" be removed from gtk4

Yesterday at 06:31:42

Currently world/gtk4 has a runtime dependency on xdg-desktop-portal-gtk which seems better as an optional dependency, given portal is not actually required, is it? This implies a chain of dependencies which is not really required, unless actually wanting to use a desktop portal.

Thanks !

This was done upstream in Arch. People are complaining so they might revert it.
