I wasn't sure if only the gstreamer plugin of pipewire are required or 
something else from the pipewire package too and that was the easy solution.

I just tested adding pipewire to gnome-shell and adding 
GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH to the wrapper seems to be enough.

While working on this I also found that also gst-plugins-good are also 
required for the Screencast service which will get found using the 
system profile as it is propagated by gnome-essential-extras. Should 
that also be added to gnome-shell?
