(Get the code!)
> This is certainly fixable with X11
No, it's not. The problem is that a popup window normally grabs the keyboard and while the keyboard is grabbed no other process is able to get key events. The result is global shortcuts cannot work. As long as the X11 protocol allows to grab the keyboard and as long as there is no global shortcut support directly integrated into the X11 protocol this is unfixable. For both we need a new protocol - we can call it X12 or Wayland, doesn't matter.
> I disagree with the RESOLVED FIXED status unless KDE has Wayland as an official dependency
Wayland has been a hard dependency of the Plasma workspace since the 5.2 release. Wayland is used already every time you lock the screen.
So let's not discuss semantics. I as the developer working on this issue decided that it's fixed and let's please stop the discussion about that. It just takes my time away from working on Wayland support :-)
