The part of the list above makes me wonder, shouldn't the window positioning 
and windowmanager features be on KWindowSystem?

I got no idea regarding kdeconnect-kde and the fake input...

I think the above is less of an issue, right? Because workspace would have a 
copy of KWayland which could be shared with whatever stability constraints 
needed.

Hope that helps. :-)
