It is, but not exactly innovative or anything. AmigaOS supported that many years ago and current AmigaOS releases still do. So it's actually an old feature that is just now starting to find traction within KDE.

Well, you guys could apologize for ganging up on him and chasing him away. There were literally no reasons to refuse the Sway compatibility patches on KScreen.
I consider KDE front must be more open to collaboration.

In your experience, what is better in KwinFT compared to vanilla Kwin? I know that vanilla Kwin on x11 suffers from stuttering which is what Kwin-lowlatency fixes. I've also tried Plasma wayland session recently and it seems that Kwin-wayland doesn't have the stuttering issue.
By the way, the desktop experience is between day and night comparing stock Manjaro with my optimized build. Even when benchmarking Company of Heroes 2 (Proton), I get a huge improvement of 17 fps (50 vs 67 fps, a couple of weeks ago I've seen 72 fps, there were some performance regressions during the last eight weeks). Granted, I would get similar FPS on Kubuntu with the Xanmod Kernel or with a LTO'ed Kernel on openSUSE Tumbleweed with much less work, but the desktop experience would be a bit worse still and I am doing it for fun to learn a thing about compilers. I wonder why there is not a bigger push for performance from the distro vendors, especially for the desktop/gaming use case. My own experiences show me that there is still a lot of room for improvements and we haven't even tapped into LTO+PGO yet.

So? Isn't that the whole point of FOSS? Not just that anyone can fork something and release their own spin, but also that anyone can fork something and merge it back, even if the codebase is out of alignment.
To be clear, I'd be happy if Roman opts to contribute any of his applicable work back to KWin.
