Bug#1088951: kwin-wayland: kwin for wayland doesn't save window positions

[Matthias Heinz <mh@familie-heinz.name>]

Package: kwin-wayland
Version: 4:6.2.3-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: mh@familie-heinz.name

Hi,

I had the pleasure to test plasma on wayland after an upgrade. It worked fine,
but some settings weren't merged, which is a minor thing and easy to fix.

But one mayor thing got me to switch back to x11: Window positions aren't saved
and restored (yet). This is a know issue, discussed here [1] and here [2].

Until this isn't implemented I have to insist that this gets recognized as a
blocking bug, because it has the potential to upset a lot of people and break
their workflow.


Best regards
Matthias
