I explained thrice I'd hopefully use KDE later (apart from brief follow-up
testing, until various bugs are fixed: ) did you know one can exit an an X
window manager (WM) or desktop environment (DE) and start another, and run
multiple different X sessions?

> Did you replace KDE's KWin window manager with XFCE's xfwm4 window manager?

NO!  Strange large unwarranted assumption; I don't 'pick & mix'/'mix & match' X
WMs & DEs nor know anyone who does: I use XFCE, KDE separately.

Of course it's KWin: reported when still using KDE!

Option isn't there.
