root window. This is set by kwin at some point after startup.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">This leaves a gap for apps/plasmashell to start, determine shadows are
not supported and then never render them for the lifespan of that app.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">It also can't handle window managers being replaced.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I spoke to Martin Grasslin who suggested just enabling shadows regardless, it's not a lot of overhead to load one set of pixmaps even if we don't end up using it. The alternative is waking up every app every time the root windows prop changes, which is arguably worse longterm.</p></pre>
