As said it's not like that, I'm just running everyday this to run
gnome-shell

  jhbuild run env XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland \
                  XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/jhbuild-runtime \
                  dbus-run-session gnome-shell --wayland \
                                               --display-server

Same works when using X11 or gnome-session (just replacing the command).
So it looks like there's nothing similar to that yet.

Maybe JHBuild could be a bst client for building only?
