We continue to look at ways to improve compatibility with all applications but at the moment I don't have a solution for your use case.

At the moment we are not lying about the display's capabilities, I think your post was correct because the application can ask the capabilities of the display the views are being drawn on instead of the ones of the main screen.
You stand a better chance to convince the developers trying the opposite: have the menubar on an accelerated screen and using the application on a DisplayLink screen. As happens in few other apps, this may work well (maybe slowly) and not be what they intended to happen.
